With a beautiful cover illustration by Alex T. Smith, creator of the Claude series, The Ogre of Oglefort is a wonderfully spooky young fiction title from the award-winning author of Journey to the River Sea, Eva Ibbotson. When a Hag, an orphan boy called Ivo, Ulf the troll and wizard Brian Brainsweller are sent to rescue a princess from an ogre, they briefly consider running away and hiding. Can they be any match for the gruesome, terrifying, ghastly, flesh-eating Ogre of Oglefort? But not all is as it first appears - the Ogre is depressed and the princess doesn't want to be rescued. The Norns, who rule their fates, decide to take things in hand and send a gang of the vilest, most petrifying ghouls to get the job done properly .

The Ogre of Oglefort

When Claude and Sir Bobblysock go for a walk in the countryside, they find themselves at Woollybottom Farm. There they meet Mrs. Cowpat, the farmer, and offer to help her get ready for the county fair, which will be held in her fields later that day. Claude gathers chickens' eggs, tries his hand at being a sheepdog, and rides a horse like a real cowboy. When Mrs. Cowpat asks Claude to wash her pigs for the Most Beautiful Pigs competition, he not only cleans them but gives them a spa-like experience. Later, the fair begins. Claude enjoys the baking, vegetable, and pig competitions until he hears someone crying for help-- it's one of the judges, and he's being chased by a bull! Claude musters up all of his courage and lassoes the bull, saving the day. Mrs. Cowpat asks Claude to stay and become a farmer, but he decides he'd miss his home too much. So he and Sir Bobblysock go home and take a nap, just in time for Mr. and Mrs. Shinyshoes to come home from work.
