THE GOBLINE AND THE EMPTY CHAIR
Author: Alan Tucker
A goblin has such frightful facial features that he covers his face so he doesn't scare people. But, when he notices the sorry plight of parents and their little girl he starts to help in the cover of darkness. He thinks nobody is watching, but in secret he is observed by each family member.
This is a touching fairytale that deals with hardship, physical deformity, and the healing power of good deeds.
