The Princess and Curdie

In the years since The Princess and the Goblin Curdie has grown and started to hunt. He's begun to doubt the story of Irene's great-great grandmother, but when he meets her himself he is given a quest and a gift. When he touches anything, man or beast, he can detect what they are like on the inside. Sent on a quest with a friendly beast, Lina, for company, Curdie once again finds himself in the service of the King and the Princess.
