Smaller than his fellow garden gnomes, little Smidgen worries that his stature is all he'll be remembered for. So when he spies a flock of fairies eavesdropping on the humans' storytime, he breaks gnome code and risks being seen for a chance to peek at the pictures and become notorious amongst gnomes. Emboldened by fairy-tale heroes, Smidgen soon finds himself part of an adventure bigger than he bargained for and more daring than he ever could have dreamed. With a heap of magic and a hint of whimsy, award-winning children's book author Amanda Huneke celebrates the beloved tradition of storytelling and reminds readers that life is as grand as they make it.
