Gumnut Babies

May Gibbs’s marvellous creation – the Gumnut World, with its tiny heroes and heroines and deliciously villainous villains – has fascinated generations of children. Gumnuts at the races, at the ballet and dancing at balls are some of the scenes that have delighted us all.

Brought together here for the first time, the storybooks of May Gibbs’s Gumnut babies, the adventures of Nuttybub and Nittersing, and those two inquisitive little Gumnuts, Chucklebud and Wunkydoo, will delight young and old alike.
