Mayne, William. Illustrated by Norman Messenger. HOB AND THE GOBLINS.
Dorling Kindersley, New York, 1994, 4th printing.
140 pp, 9 7/16" H, hard cover in dust jacket. ISBN 1564587134 "Hob works when he lives in a house. He tidies away abandoned things, like scraps of quarrels or pieces of spite. He banishes small troubles, makes ghosts happy, soothes tired curtains, charms kettles into singing, and stops milk from sulking. Hob, the friendly house spirit, has found a new family to take care of, but the house they live in proves to hold more than just 'Floorshiver' and 'Plastercrack'. Hob is suddenly confronted with dwarfs, witches, goblins, gremlins, and a dark secret that hides the path to a crock of gold. He must use all his tricks, cunning, and invisible powers if he is to see the adventure through to its hair-raising conclusion. William Mayne's unique language c onjures up a magical world where children can create their own imaginative visions. Norman Messenger's spriteful Hobgoblin alphabet adds to the mystery and power of this spellbinding tale." Dust jacket is price-clipped and has minor wrinkling at top/bottom of spine and flap-folds.

Clarke, Gillian, chosen by. Illustrated by Justin Todd. (Emily Bronte, Padraic Colum, Emily Dickinson, Ted Hughes, William Mayne, Jack Prelutsky, Theodore Roethke, Christina Rossetti, Carl Sandburg, Stevie Smith, Ian Serraillier, et al.) THE WHISPERING ROOM: HAUNTED POEMS.
Kingfisher, New York, (1996), Ist edition.
72 pp, small 4to (10 1/4" H), hard cover in dust jacket. Patterned endpapers, magically (and spookily) illustrated throughout in full color by Justin Todd. "When the night is dark and the wind is howling, enter a room filled with mystery and wonde r, with words and images to make you shiver: The Whispering Room. Inside you'll find the bones of an ancient royal ship, a frozen man who walks the streets, phantom fishermen, and a lurking bogeyman. Here even the most ordinary things seem fri g h t ening: streetlights, the flash of headlights against the wall, or an empty shool. Ranging from traditional verse to new works by contemporary poets, the poems in this eerie collection take readers beyond the comforts of their cozy homes to sp ec tr al forests, deserted islands, and even to the Milky Way in search of spellbinding images." Dust jacket is price-clipped, light wrinkling at top of spine and flap-folds, light creases on top half of spine, minor rubbing. NF/VG
