Matthew Gray Gubler’s Rumple Buttercup, while a children’s book, is a wonderful story for a person of any age.
With incredibly interesting artwork, unusual characters, and short sentences on the pages, this is an easy book to read to your children–or yourself–while keeping interest. To younger children it may simply be a fun story to read at bedtime, but the message in this story-line is easily recognizable by older children and adults: be nobody but yourself.
Rumple is a lovable, sad, imaginative little guy living in solitary under the city streets, out of fear for being different; as the story moves along, he and his friend made of candy, Carl, decide they want to experience more in life, and the city-folk show him that everybody is different.
If you’re looking for a cute, easy read that’s sure to boost your mood and your confidence, this is the book for you. It’s a great message for parents to teach their children and a lovely bedtime story regardless. Ten of ten stars for this simple, magical children’s book.
