Rumple Buttercup: A Story Of Bananas, Belonging, And Being Yourself

"There’s a new monster in town, and his name is Rumple Buttercup. Rumple rolls into town – well, he actually lives UNDER the town already – and takes it by storm. Rumple has green skin, five crooked teeth, three strands of hair, an imaginary friend made of candy and hides from the world under a banana peel. At 136 pages, it may seem a little long for reading aloud, but Rumple is so endearing that kids won’t let you put it down. Matthew Gray Gubler’s first book is a triumph, and his quirky illustrations hook kids immediately and leave them waiting for a sequel. (For ages 4 and older)"
