Sprout is a goblin. A young goblin. Young goblins often get into scrapes. That’s probably all you need to know, because who doesn’t like to hear about others getting out of tricky situations, especially when they’re goblins? You can now join Sprout, his family, and friends, on their adventures in the Forest of the Hooting Owl in this single omnibus edition.

From what we have relearned in recent history about the way magnetism, gravity, centrifugal and centripetal force, as well as the many other forces one giant body exerts upon another, we know the medievalists had it right all along. When the moon gets too close and too bright, it makes us crazy. In that spirit, editor Lancelot Schaubert rounded up sci-fi and fantasy writers Anne Greenwood Brown, Juliet Marillier, LJ Cohen, Anthony G. Cirilla, FC Shultz, and Emily Munro to write about cosmic influence.

Sprout’s final adventure is about to begin and it’s his most important one yet. When there’s a mission to be undertaken, you can be sure Sprout’s at the front of the queue for a spot on the team, especially when the aim is to find the place where all those banished by hare dares have been sent. He has a very good reason for wanting to go. He needs to find out what happened to his pa. It turns out that it’s quite a long journey and involves running, magic, flying, danger, and more magic. There’s even a point at which Sprout is put in charge of a train.

The dark side of the gig economy (Uber, Airbnb, etc.) and how to make it equitable for the users and workers most exploited.

Never eat the berries. This is something Sprout was taught from a very young age, because no one wants to experience faerie wrath. However, a witch who wasn’t brought up in the forest might be tempted, especially in the abundance of the now constant summer in The Forest of the Hooting Owl. How can a witch who has broken faerie law be kept safe, a witch who shouldn’t even be in the forest? A possible solution comes from a totally unexpected place, which involves a good deal of trust. But will it work?

Juliet White provides another fascinating overview of the details of the creatures of planet earth, told through accessible stories that younger kids can engage with and relate to.

The stories are narrated by a school teacher and set to calming music so that the stories are educational but can be listened to at bedtime as part of the going-to-sleep ritual.

Goblins aren't supposed to engage in the practice of walking dogs. Neither are they meant to attempt to save witches. And they most certainly aren't in the business of facing up to big, bad trolls. Sprout has never been one to do what he's expected to do. That tends to get him into trouble. This time is no different. Has Sprout taken on more than he can cope with? Has he chewed on one too many magic herbs? The answers are within, for those who dare to take the journey alongside a young, adventurous goblin, in order to find out the truth.

When an unexpected face appears at the door to Sprout’s cave in Coven’s Corner, he knows that secrets are at risk of coming out. The question is, who is going to have to tell the truth, because Wizards aren’t easy to hide. Sprout has his work cut out trying to keep things running smoothly, what with hooting owls butting in on conversations, a sprite determined to catch up with a promise-bearer and a riddle frog on a mission to fulfill his destiny. Wandering around the forest turns out to be much more challenging than he could ever have imagined.

When Sprout witnesses a Biglander stealing his ma’s ring, at a time when he should’ve been looking after it, he knows he has to get it back. Aided by his uncle Long Tooth, he makes a plan. Even though this task will take him out of the Forest of the Hooting Owl, a place that only forest dwellers know is there because it is hidden behind a veil of magic, he is determined to succeed. His ma’s happiness depends upon him. How many attempts will it take? Is it even possible to do? And what is the truth about the Biglander who managed to get into the forest?

There are many long-held superstitions in The Forest of the Hooting Owl. Some are just that, superstitions, with no basis in fact. Others are not so harmless. Hare dares are such a case. On the day in question, Sprout does not look away from the hare in time and is given a dare. Can the young goblin manage to complete it and avoid the consequences of failing?

We all face challenges in our lives that seem like boulders - immovable objects that stop us achieving our goals. They can be anything from being nervous when facing a room full of people we don't know, to delivering bad news, clear up a misunderstanding, or apologize when we have been in the wrong. All too often we react to these boulders by avoiding them or pushing and shoving in the hopes of shifting them, though deep down inside we know that shoving didn't work last time and it isn't going to work now.
