Hixel – Goblin Summer without Socks
An adventure in the spin cycle. Who’s stealing the socks?
Henja doesn’t believe that there are goblins or that goblins are crazy for socks. But that changes when, one day, a scraggly boy tries to escape with her last pair of socks. Little does he know, he’s tangling with the wrong person! Henja gives chase and catches the sock thief. And look, Hixel actually is a goblin. He has just bungled his first magic test (the unsuccessful sock theft). And then the washing machine (the secret portal into the goblins’ realm) is broken. Whether they want to or not, Henja and Hixel must work together so that he can go home. In the process it's almost inevitable that the goblin, whose magic spells don’t always work as planned, and the quick-witted girl become friends!
- A dynamic duo with strong character appeal
- A fresh and humorous twist on the Goblin lore
