Love Love Love

"Amazing storyline and beautiful illustration. My kids love this book"

— Olena (5/5)

A Fantastic Trickster Tale

"This book immediately caught my eye on the shelf as an adult and forever lover of darker children's tales, and the artwork is so beautiful. The story that goes alongside the illustrations is a great little trickster tale without being too scary for young readers."

— Ricky (5/5)

Gorgeous!!

"Not only is this a gorgeous book, but it’s also a very good story. The perfect reminder, or maybe first time learning for children not to trust fairies! I love how the goblins and fairies are clear stand-ins for strangers or people who have deals that are too good to be true. The lyrical flow of this story, the gothic illustrations, and overall mood drew me in immediately. I wanted to buy this for all the little ones in my life, but it is 5+ age book I think. I put it in the same classification as Little Red Wolf (another favourite) in that the story is a touch dark and so better for an older child. This is the kind of book I would write an inscription in and hope that the child might keep for their life as it’s a great reminder to stay loyal and true to what is most important. It’s also just so beautiful in a dark melancholy way. The perfect book to go back to as an adult in troubling times, or just for a reminder of what to value. One of my favourite books of 2025. Please note: I received an eARC of this book from the publisher via NetGalley. This is an honest and unbiased review."

— M L. (5/5)

Amazing retelling of the classic

"Based off one of my favourite poems by Christina Rossetti """"goblin market"""". This is a great retelling. A fable of morals, this book entertaining and the illustrations are detailed and beautiful."

— Chris (5/5)

Charming book for Children

"This is a wonderful book about decorating the tree and appreciating the stories behind some of the ornaments. The artwork is unique and appealing to all age groups."

— Rusty (5/5)

PRAISE FOR Into the Goblin Market:

"[A] bravura picture book . . . With its righteous turning of tables courtesy of Millie's quick thinking, Into the Goblin Market, which was inspired by the like-themed Christina Rossetti poem, earns a spot in the contemporary fairy-tale pantheon. . . . Eckwall's black-and-white art, which has the look of elaborate woodcuts, hosts a cauldron's worth of classic fairy-tale allusions. Readers can spot a piper, a witch with a (presumably) poisoned apple, and, in one of the book's occasional blasts of color, rescue-mode Millie in a red hood, conjuring another red-cloaked hero of the fairy-tale world." —STARRED REVIEW, Shelf Awareness

"A tribute to the work of Victorian poet Christina Rosetti, Into the Goblin Market is a delicious treat for those yearning for a bit of frightful adventure." —STARRED REVIEW, BookPage

"A gratifying, happy-ever-after tale of symbiotic sororal cleverness." —Kirkus Reviews

"A beautiful blend of classic aesthetics and modern sensibilities with a marvelous message of courage and love. . . . [A] bewitching book." —Booklist

"Into the Goblin Market stands out all on its own. Two sisters, Mina and Millie, use the strength of their unbreakable bond when Mina disappears, perhaps to be consumed by malign forces. Millie, confronting the supernatural terrors of classic fairy tales with an undertone of Rosetti's feminist poem, rescues her beloved sibling and they return home. The poetry is hypnotic, the pictures are stunning, and the sisters are undefeated through their love." —Imaginary Elevators

"This is a deliciously spooky story inspired by Christina Rossetti's poem, 'The Goblin Market,' and classic fairy tales. It is perfectly matched with black and red block print-type illustrations. This will be a delight to read with children!" —American Booksellers Association

"Into the Goblin Market is a true rhyming fairytale that will appeal to many readers, especially those looking for a story with a strong focus on the power of sisterhood." —Young Adulting

"This is a deliciously spooky story inspired by Christina Rossetti's poem 'The Goblin Market' and classic fairy tales. It is perfectly matched with black and red block print-type illustrations. This will be a delight to read with children!" —Vicky Titcomb, Titcomb's Bookshop, East Sandwich, MA
