This weeks theme is
"Billy Goat"
I live in a rural area and many of our neighbors have Billy Goats.
They are fun happy and goofy little animals. Watching them jump and run is so cute.
The Billy Goat got its name after John Stedman in 1778
rowed his herd of goats to the island to protect them from wolves.
But the bitter winter killed all the goats except for one, Old Billy Goat.
British soldiers hearing the story nicknamed the island Goat Island. The name stuck.
