| Publisher Description: Come along with some real-life goblins as they visit their hometown for Halloween They should be excited and happy, but the goblins are glum. Why? Because they get no respect Criticized and bullied, they just don't get it. They are goblins, and good at what they do and proud of it. But they soon learn that showing up and being true to one's self is a good thing, on Halloween, and most any other time. And no one is more surprised than the "gobs" themselves, and the kids who come to their Goblinville stores to Trick-or-Treat P.S. You're not a scaredy-cat, are you? No? Goooood. This charming, rhyming, humorous, non-scary story subtly shares important messages on being yourself, anti-bullying, and self-acceptance with candor, humor, and sensitivity. It is a book that young readers will at first feel sorry for the poor goblins, and they will see that anyone can get bullied for being different, even goblins. Don't worry, though, we promise you a story with a happy ending. |
