The Goffins: Lofty and Eave by Jeanne Willis

Is there a Goffin in your attic? Meet the Goffins in this brand new series from a beloved award-winning author! George's grandma is ill, so he and his mum and dad have moved into her house to look after her. George is bored, lonely and resentful towards his family. But then he discovers the Goffins - Lofty and Eave - two most unusual people who live secretly in grandma's attic. They have used all the family's old junk to create a home for themselves, but George soon finds out it can tell him about his ancestors as well - with a little help from his new friends. They have a strange way of talking - and an even stranger way of procuring food! But as they show George more and more of their rooftop world, they teach him to be more confident and caring, which makes for a much happier family life.
