The Grumpy Old Troll (sometimes known as Mr. Troll) is the secondary antagonist of Dora the Explorer, a troll who lives under the Troll Bridge that Dora and Boots sometimes come across. Whenever they tries to cross his bridge, he will jump out and sing a song telling them that they need to answer a riddle or else they will not be allowed across. But never cause trouble together.
Description
