This is the story of the round the world travels of Golliwogg and his "old time friends", the Dutch peg dolls, on their home made bicycles. They travel to Paris and visit the Eiffel Tower; visit Japan and ride in a jinrikisha; travel to Turkey, ride a camel in a desert, and are captured by a tribe of cannibals.

Florence K Upton (1873-1922) published 12 Golliwogg books between 1895 and 1907. The inspiration for the books came from a black doll she and her sisters had been given when they were small and which she felt would go with the Dutch dolls she had prepared as models for the children's book she wanted to write. The verses were written by her mother but it is the charming treatment of the characters in Florence's illustrations that made them so popular. Although produced in large numbers, like so many really popular children's books, the vast majority were read, scribbled on, torn and destroyed by their young readers.
