Gumdrop and the Monster invites young readers into Val Biro’s charmingly illustrated world where the beloved blue 1926 Austin car faces a gentle, imaginative scare. This 1987 picture-book edition pairs playful bedtime rhymes with lively full-page drawings, making it an ideal wind-down story for toddlers and nostalgic adults alike.

The fantasy-tinged tale keeps pages turning without fright, balancing just-enough suspense with warm reassurance. Biro’s signature detail-rich art rewards repeat views, while the sturdy trade paperback format lies flat for shared reading on carpet or couch.

This gently pre-loved copy is smoke-free and unmarked inside; colour remains bright and binding tight. Light cover scuffs and two tiny page spots are the only reminders of its shelf history—no tears, scribbles, or dog-eared corners to distract from story time.

Collectors of classic British picture books and parents hunting durable bedtime reads will appreciate finding Gumdrop and the Monster ready for another generation of listeners.
