Blither and blather . . . Gibblewort the miserable Irish goblin is back!

Goblin at the Zoo
When Gibblewort wakes up at the zoo, he thinks he's in deepest, darkest Africa. So he squeezes his way into a nice, safe cage – only to find he's become the object of affection for a female chimpanzee! Every time Gibblewort manages to escape her clutches, he finds himself being thrown, kicked, tossed, shaken and even electrocuted back into the chimps' enclosure . . . and Daisy's long hairy arms! How is everyone's favourite nasty little goblin going to get out of this one?


Goblin in the Snow
Gibblewort the horrible Irish goblin is driving his goblin mates crazy, so they pack him off to Austria for a winter holiday, only at the last minute 'Austria' becomes 'Australia' and Gibblewort ends up in the Snowy Mountains in ski season. Speeding snowboards, giant snowballs, talking fish – everywhere Gibblewort goes, trouble is sure to follow!
