Bookroo's summary

Caden and Cailyn's forgotten manners lead to a goblin heist, but when elves transform them into pineapples, the goblins must save the day. Can they outwit the elves and restore the children?

From the publisher

Gobble up this new picture book inspired by Filipino mythology featuring trinket-stealing goblins whose knack for thievery just might save the day. Mind your manners; hang on to your toys (and pineapples?) When Caden and Cailyn forget to say thank you to Lola Mi for their gifts, the famous gobbling goblins come to take the children’s treasures. Gobble gobble gobble. It’s all in a day’s work. But then a band of mischievous elves swipes some curious VIPs (Very Important Pineapples) from the house . . . pineapples that look suspiciously like Caden and Cailyn. Not saying thank you is one thing, but turning children into fruit? Talk about impolite! Now the goblins are on a rescue mission to get those pineapple-kids back from the elves. Can their latest gobble save the day?
