    About this ebook

    Gnomes are rare these days - which is why so few people ever see them. But Elizabeth and her Uncle find two forlorn little people, the last of a tribe of California Redwood gnomes. When they hear Glogo's sad story, they get in Uncle Rodney's shiny car (The Gnomobile) to search for another tribe of gnomes and a wife for young Bobo. But curiosity seekers cause one problem after another until something really terrible happens... Bobo and Glogo are gnome-gnaped!

    This is the wildly amusing tale of two gnomes, Glogo and Bobo, who travel to America in the company of two human friends in their custom gnomobile...
