Don't Bump the Glump! and Other Fantasies is a children's book written and illustrated by Shel Silverstein. His first book of verse, and the only one to feature full color illustrations, it was originally published in 1964 by Simon & Schuster under the title Uncle Shelby's Zoo: Don't Bump the Glump! and Other Fantasies.
