Gubler wrote and illustrated his first book, Rumple Buttercup: A Story of Bananas, Belonging and Being Yourself, which was released on April 2, 2019. It is published as a children's book, but Gubler says it is for all ages, "for anyone who’s ever felt like they didn’t quite fit in, just to make them know that they’re not alone.... My hope in writing the book was to find a way to give the world a 136-page hug." He hand-wrote everything in the book - "every single word, every single illustration, including the bar code and the lengthy copyright page." Within weeks of its release the book was ranked #1 in its category on the New York Times Best Sellers List.
