Deep in the bog, where the swampland was stark
and shadows would linger long after the dark,
in slime, grime and soil, in ambers and ash...
Goblin was searching for trinkets and trash.
Goblin has everything. Trinkets and treasures, nick-nacks and stuff - he has it all . . . and yet, it's never enough. So, when a band of unlikely companions turn up and Goblin actually FEELS something, things start to shift. Could it be that friendship, not possessions, is what Goblin really needs?
The follow up to Times' Children's Book of the Week, Troll, Goblin is a wonderfully funny and powerful story about the magic of human connection.
