Publisher Comments:

Jimmy McGee is a tiny, leprechaun-like man whose peaceful life is disrupted when he rescues Amy's doll Little Lydia from a monstrous wave that sweeps her off the beach. Can Jimmy find a way to restore Little Lydia to her original state as a "do-nothing doll" before he returns her to her rightful owner?

From the bestselling author of Ginger Pye comes the quirky story of a little man who saves the day in a big way.

Synopsis:

A tiny plumber becomes a hero by rescuing a doll and returning it to its grateful owner. Illustrations.
