    This collection contains the complete Giggleswick trilogy –– all THREE books! Save 30% versus buying individually!It’s a natural phenomenon -- a small country in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean hidden from the rest of the world by a circle of unnavigable fog. It’s called Giggleswick, and twelve-year old Elliot Bisby has never heard of it, that is until he and his family are approached by an unusual man and asked to move there. Before they know it, the struggling Bisby family finds themselves on a tiny boat captained by a man who prefers a singing parrot to a compass, and they soon embark on a journey that no other seaman could make and live to tell about. In Giggleswick, Elliot and his parents find themselves mingling with a colorful set of locals the likes of which include an Irish-Arabian bagpiper, a man who thinks he’s a knight, and a woman who does her exercises on the roof in high-heels. At last, Elliot has found the happiness he’s been waiting for and a place to call his own, but what he doesn’t know, is that helping Giggleswick to remain hidden from the rest of the world may prove far more difficult and dangerous than he could have ever imagined ...

Get it here: http://amzn.to/1lkyYiF Despite the fact that Elliot Bisby and his best friend Eliza nearly died at the end of their last school year, a rather uneventful summer leaves them eager for the start of a new term. Their excitement fades, however, when they find themselves under the charge of several peculiar new teachers, in particular an excruciatingly energetic Director of Performing Arts. But they’ll soon be worrying about more than homework and musical auditions as people start disappearing in Giggleswick one by one. These mysterious happenings prompt Chief Justice Kennedy Kreville to launch an all-out manhunt for a kidnapper, but with very few clues, almost everyone comes under suspicion, and finger-pointing abounds. Injecting the peaceful little island with a heavy dose of fear, Kreville soon has all of Giggleswick under his spell, and it’s not long before he’s reaching for his gavel. In fact, there’s one person he suspects more than any other, but Elliot’s sure he’s way off the mark, and it’ll be up to him to prove Kreville wrong before anyone else disappears ...

Granting them any talent they wish for (and sometimes ones they don't wish for), the turban is right atop their heads for each adventure they embark upon in their quest to solve the family's money troubles. What they'll soon learn, however, is that some talents may be more trouble than they're worth ...
