What This Collection Covers:
Across the three novels, readers follow Frankie Banister through a widening world of hospitality, mischief, and magic. The first book introduces a demanding goblin prince, testing the Banisters' ingenuity and loyalty. In the second, a snowstorm brings a Yeti family and a string of curious visitors, while something sinister looms over the celebrations. The third reveals Grandad Abraham’s 175th birthday and an underwater wing that unlocks the Briny Ballroom, turning a family gathering into a sea-salted celebration. The triad builds a connected arc of friendship, courage, and creativity as the Banisters balance guest comfort with secret discoveries. Themes of kindness, teamwork, and resilience run through each tale, while world-building—goblins, Yetis, ghosts, and underwater realms—adds playful depth to a familiar family adventure setting.
