A hilariously heartwarming fairy tale for ages 7–10.

Grumble the Goblin is perfectly content running the grumpiest school in the land—until Twizzle arrives. She's a giggling, glitter-loving fairy who dances through detention and turns scowls into smiles.

But as joy begins to spread through the School for Sulks, Grumble is faced with a goblin-sized dilemma: fight back with more gloom... or let a little light in?

Perfect for fans of The Worst Witch and How to Train Your Dragon, this laugh-out-loud story celebrates emotional balance, unexpected friendships, and the courage to be cheerful—even in the gloomiest of places.

Expect scowling trolls, sobbing ogres, flying glitter, and a fairy who won't stop smiling. Ever.
