Publisher's Summary
Here's a great gift idea and a wonderful audiobook for school holiday listening. It received 4.5-star reviews on Amazon.com.
One beastly beast that's more than meets the eye.... Two aliens with slimy tentacles and too many eyes fixed on adopting a human son.... Three inventors and a sea serpent, a princess, an orphanage, and two ships full of pirates....
Here are four fantastic tales by renowned fantasy author Garth Nix. Nix takes on a younger audience with this collection of magical adventures. His trademark fertile imagination and spellbinding storytelling is sure to capture a whole new generation of fans.

What the critics say
"These four gently tongue-in-cheek adventures pit clever youngsters against unusual creatures - pirate rats who steal DVDs, aliens, a mechanical dragon, and a misunderstood sea serpent. Each time, clueless adult authorities ignore or are stymied by the supposed menace, but the hero is able to resolve the situation successfully and nonviolently. There is a strong emphasis on creativity and individual initiative, and a gentle reminder that brains are better than brawn.... The positive message and amusing stories make this a good choice for younger fantasy fans." (School Library Journal)
"Thoroughly ridiculous and hugely enjoyable." (Kirkus Reviews)
