Brian Froud’s Goblins by Ari Berk

This is a fun book. It kind of reminds me of the Spiderwick Chronicles a bit in that it's a collection of goblin data, not so much from a mythological perspective, but from a fantastical perspective. Unlike other works by Froud, the goblins have play a more vocal role. It brings a sense of fun to the book... but at the same time it looses a bit of what the previous books like faeries or the cottington series had. It's more jeuvenile than mythological, but the message gets across and it keeps it fun.
 

It wasn't as good as the other stuff, but was still pretty great.
