“Rhyming picture books about the help that shows up when you need it.”

Random Gamp is a traveler in a top hat and a coat with tails, with a bright red umbrella that isn’t quite ordinary. He turns up in children’s lives without being sent for — when a boat is missed, when a treehouse won’t build itself, when something’s been lost under the floor. Every book is written in rhyme, made to be read aloud.
