Description

Bob Taylor is a typical ten‑year‑old whose days are filled with school chores, endless errands, and a growing sense of frustration. One restless night, after a torrent of tears and a restless toss‑about in his bed, the quiet of his moonlit room is broken by an unexpected visitor perched on his windowsill—a strange, green‑skinned goblin with a voice that crackles like a distant thunderclap. Their bewildering conversation spirals from bewildered introductions to a playful debate over what a goblin actually is, pulling Bob out of his gloom and into a world where imagination suddenly feels tangible.

As the goblin’s odd humor and oddball observations clash with Bob’s sour mood, the boy discovers that the ordinary can be turned upside down by a single, magical encounter. Listeners will be drawn into the whimsical tension between a boy’s everyday worries and the mischievous charm of a nocturnal creature, setting the stage for an adventure that promises both laughter and a fresh look at the world around him.
