Eric Halfbee — Sarah Smith (1)

Eric Halfbee is a nine-year-old boy from a little place called Boggle Street. He lives with his mum, dad, and annoying â€" I mean, lovely â€" sister, Jessica. Eric and Jessica love nothing more than trying to get their dad out of his shed, and eating their mother's latest, questionable, attempts at cooking . . . not. Despite his family's quirks, Eric's life has been pretty normal . . . until now.

When an elf appears, called Loki, Eric and Jessica's lives are turned upside down. Ellyon â€" a world of laughter, jiggery-pokery and a bit of mischief â€" is under attack from the formidable Ghillie Dhu. The Light Elves and the Dark Elves are finally confronting each other, and only Eric can help them achieve peace. But Eric, as a human, must tread carefully: Ellyon is a strange place and the dangers are real.

Join Eric and Jessica on their amazing adventures, over four books, as they travel through the magical world of Ellyon, take on the villainous Ghillie Dhu, and make startling discoveries about different worlds and about themselves. Expect to learn some astonishing things, and lots of laughter along the way!
