Barnaby Bumstead and the Gentle Takedown

One small boy. One big book. A whole lot of trouble.

Barnaby Bumstead isn’t your average adventurer. He doesn't have a sword, a map to buried treasure, or a secret superpower. What he does have is a very important book - The Gentle Art: A Guide to Brazilian JiuJitsu.

With a dash of defiance, a lot of practice, and a few well-timed tumbles, The Barnaby Bumstead Adventures is a hilarious, action-packed journey about finding your feet (and sometimes landing on your head) in a world that’s constantly trying to trip you up.
