Perpetually unimpressed Gilbert the Goblin explains why goblins are superior to other, overrated magical creatures in this wildly funny and imaginative picture book series-the first four books now available together in a hardcover boxed set!
Gilbert the Goblin is sick and tired of other creatures getting all the good press. Goblins work harder than anyone putting magic to good use, while unicorns frolic around throwing tea parties. And dragons are just full of hot air...literally!
Then there are yetis. Don't even get Gilbert started on yetis! Their mystique only comes from no one having seen one before. Gilbert can prove they're not all they're cracked up to be-just as soon as he can find one. And who says elves are the only ones with the work ethic and know-how to keep the holidays humming? Gilbert is sure he can run Santa's workshop just as well as a team of overachieving elves.
Journey through Gilbert the Goblin's magical home and watch as the curmudgeonly naysayer discovers there's more to his neighbors than meets the eye! In the Worst! series, even the strangest of creatures can become the best of friends.
This laugh-out-loud hardcover boxed set includes:
Unicorns Are the Worst!
Dragons Are the Worst!
Yetis Are the Worst!
Elves Are the Worst!
