The Goblin and the Empty Chair by Mem Fox

Fox, Mem The Goblin and the Empty Chair, illustrated by Leo and Diane Dillon. The goblin knows that he is ugly and goes out of the way to keep himself from the company of others. But a human family needs some help and the Goblin tries to reach out and ease their sorrow. This book is so beautiful that I really had to fit back tears as I was reading. I shared it with my assistant and she loved it too. Add this to your fairy tale collections – and use it to teach inference in your classes. But most of all, enjoy and share with your neighbors.
