A story of a brave girl and her efforts to do battle against the evil gappers terrorising Frip by brilliant adult novelist George Saunders and award-winning children's illustrator Lane Smith.
A gapper is a bit of a 'burr' but it is a dangerous thing. When it attaches itself to the goats the goats become very unhappy and even stop giving milk. There is nothing gappers like more than goats and nothing goats hate more than gappers. When gappers get your goats it means trouble. In one small town gappers are a real pest and it takes the ingenious approach of Capable to find a soution - if a solution exists at all.
