Description
Finley McPhee's life became rather strange once Aiby Lily arrived in Applecross. But after the Lily family's grand opening of the Enchanted Emporium, Finley's life becomes even stranger. Sheep disappear from nearby farms. Fish vanish from the local lakes and streams. The townsfolk claim that the Green Man, a legend from a Scottish folk tale, is responsible. Is he just an old fable, or a genuine threat? As the new defender of the Enchanted Emporium, its up to Finley to find out -- with a little help from his inseparable dog, Patches, of course.

ReviewsRapid pacing propels the story, while intricate illustrations of the Emporium's magical items provide opportunities for readers to linger among its treasures. Perfect for graduates of the Spiderwick Chronicles.-- "Booklist Online"
