The Complete Encyclopedia of Elves, Goblins, And Other Little Creatures

This giant, gorgeously illustrated encyclopedia documents the lives of elves, goblins, hobgoblins, gnomes, imps, pixies, and sprites with whimsy and wonder. The most extensive volume on the various types of little creatures and fairyfolk, "The Great Encyclopedia of Elves, Goblins and Other Little Creatures" illustrates each unique species with charming, luminous, detailed drawings, and includes the folklore and fairy tales collected through extensive research. As a result of twenty years of patient research, the author, Pierre Dubois, has created portraits of hundreds of species. For each one, he wrote a tale starting from authentic anecdotes, spiced with spirited humor. The illustrations of Roland Sabatler portray each strange and wonderful creature and the marvels and mysteries of the habitats they live in.
