- Summary:
-
Blither and Blather! Gibblewort is a nasty little Irish goblin who can think of nothing better than playing horrible tricks on his friends and snacking on mothballs. But when he decides to mail himself to Australia for some sun, things begin to go very wrong. Whether he's stung and nibbled in the bush cuddled by an octopus at the bottom of the Great Barrier Reef or gobbled by city traffic, trouble follows Gibblewort's antics in this collection of three of his most memorable adventures in Australia: Goblin in the Bush, Goblin on the Reef and Goblin in the City.
