**An updated and revised edition of the _New York Times_ bestseller _Gnomes_, the beloved illustrated survey of gnome life, history, and lore, which has sold astronomically since its original publication in 1977\.** **Introduction by Brian Froud, conceptual designer of the Jim Henson films _The_ _Dark Crystal_ and _Labyrinth._** Did you know that gnome couples always have twin children? Or that a gnome is seven times as strong as a human? Do you want to hear some gossip from the gnome who knew Rembrandt?
