The Little Grey Men

There are only four gnomes left in the world, and one of them, Cloudberry, set off a year earlier to find the source of the Folly and never returned. Two of the three remaining gnomes decide to go in search of Cloudberry, leaving behind the one-legged elderly Dodder. But even Dodder can't resist the lure of adventure, and he, too, takes off after the others.

The gnomes have all sorts of fun and scary adventures, including a lost boat and a skirmish with a giant.

It's an adventure of the old-fashioned sort, with gnomes as your guides.
