1 ratings

A little magic and mystery make for an intriguing and heart-warming story. Hob is a friendly spirit who makes his home in one family's house. He straightens out messes and takes a way small troubles. He enjoys looking out for his "family." But one day, when Hob moves into a new house with a new family, he is unexpectedly confronted with a group of mean and nasty witches, gremlins, dwarfs, goblins, and an ominous ogre. Hob is forced to use all his tricks, a little cunning, much love, and his power to be invisible to help his adopted family to live peacefully in their new home.
