Description: Eliza has a second adventure on the other side of the fairy door--and must call on her wits when a band of impish hobgoblins follows her home--in this enchanting tale by the award-winning author of the Judy Moody series.
What's that? Eliza hears faint music coming from behind the teeny-tiny fairy door she created low on the wall. So she presses her ear to the door and--shwoosh!--is whisked into the red, rocky land of hobgoblins, leaving behind the heaps of toys and books that were strewn around her room (along with her mother's orders to clean them up). Luckily, Eliza discovers that the pointy-hatted hobs love to play, love a mess, and can grant wishes! But when she wishes that Hobby, Nobby, and Tobby would help her with her room, she learns that what hobgoblins actually love is playing tricks--and as they burst into her space, it's clear that she's fallen for their trickery. Can she outrun their mischief before they decorate all of her walls with crayon and turn her ceiling fan into a hobgoblin merry-go-round? Just maybe . . . but only if she can come up with a few tricks of her own! Megan McDonald's follow-up to Eliza and the Flower Fairies, illustrated in glowing full color by Lenny Wen, is sure to be happily devoured by every child who fervently believes in fairies and other magical folk.Review Quotes: Eliza is a relatable protagonist, and the well-developed plot offers just the right mix of fantasy and humor. Colorful illustrations appear throughout, enhancing the imaginative setting. . . .Sure to delight fans of magic and mischief.
