Monday's Troll

Written by Jack Prelutsky, illustrated by Peter Sis.

The book features seventeen poems about various mythological creatures such as trolls, wizards, witches, ogres, giants, a yeti, and seven grubby goblins. One of the most notable poems in the collection is the title poem, "Monday's Troll," which follows a structure similar to the traditional nursery rhyme "Monday's child is fair of face," but with a twist, describing the less pleasant characteristics of trolls for each day of the week.
