Follow Gilbert the Goblin in the Festive Final Installment of The Worst! Picture Book Series

Gilbert the Goblin infiltrates Santa’s workshop to prove that goblins are better workers than elves in the side-splitting latest installment in The Worst! picture book series, where even the strangest of creatures can become the best of friends.

Everyone knows that elves have a reputation of being the hardest workers around—especially when it comes to the holiday season—but as far as Gilbert the Goblin is concerned that’s nothing but ho-ho-hogwash. A goblin’s to-do list is just as long as any elf’s; they just don’t feel the need to sing songs about it.

To prove he can outperform any reindeer-watching, wrapper-paper-wielding, toy-tinkering elf, Gilbert puts on his merriest disguise to infiltrate Santa’s workshop. But can one lone goblin do the work of a whole team of elves?

“Alex Willan knocks it out of the park with this next adventure in the Gilbert universe with his signature silliness and vibrant, eye-catching art. As someone who prefers to work alone like Gilbert, I was so touched by the lesson in this story—that even the most independent individuals work better with a team.”
