Is the grass greener on the other side?
Gundi the goat is very hungry and in his home field there is no grass to eat, only soil and stones. He sees that on the other side of the fjord at the Greenhill the grass is greener than he has ever seen before. Help him on his journey from his home (Heimahagi) to the Greenhill (Grænuhlíð)!
