BR 2-6: The Billy Goats Gruff

I read 'The Billy Goats Gruff' this time instead of the series of 'the stories of blah blah blah'. This book has 7 chapters, which are connected each chapter.

Story: Once upon a time, 3 billy goats brothers lived in a mountain. They are; Beanie the youngest, Berrie the middle, and Biffer the oldest. One winter they were leaving their farm to look for food. But 2 younger brothers didn't want to go because in a half way to the area where they can eat plenty of food, it's said that horrible troll lived there according to a legend. However, Biffer the oldest persuaded them. One week later, they left the farm. They went through into a forest. Suddenly a thick fog wrapped around them. Fortunately, they didn't get lost each other, but a big shade was behind their back. Two younger bros. were scared, then they raced off down the path. Beanie the youngest found the path through the forest and arrived at the river where troll lives. When he reached the middle of the river, he was grabbed by green hand, Yes, troll finally appeared. But Beanie told the troll that his brother comes soon and taste better. After that, he could across the river, then they waited the middle brother comes. Berrie the middle was caught the same way as Beanie by the troll, but he told troll same thing, then troll let him go. Finally, Biffer arrived there, and he face the troll. However, he beat the troll with his horns. Troll was thrown into the river and was never seen again.

Biffer was really brave. I'm middle of my brother, but if I was oldest, I wanna be like him because I have to take care of other brother and to be respected and trusted. If you were the oldest, what will you do for your brother or sister??
