this fall…

Two 601-year-old goblin tricksters from Korea go on an unexpected Halloween adventure in New York City in this tongue-in-cheek story by Frances Cha, illustrated by Jaime Kim.

 

“A frightful delight….Cha’s writing is excellently paced and entertaining, while the digital illustrations are filled with bright colors and bring the charming characters to life.” —School Library Journal, starred review

“A sweet, comical Halloween venture for all.” —Kirkus Reviews

 

Kebi loves to scare people (maybe a little too much) and explore…

Doki would rather give people bags of gold when he’s not reading a book…

Despite their differences, ancient Korean goblins Doki and Kebi are inseparable. When it’s time for the tricksters to move, the brothers decide to make their new home together in a strange, unknown land…New York City! As they prepare for the new customs of Halloween, Doki and Kebi are in for a surprise in this new holiday adventure inspired by the Korean mythology of dokkaebi.
