Kipps
Kipps: The Story of a Simple Soul je roman britanskog književnika H. G. Wellsa, originalno izdan 1905. godine. Naslovni protagonist je siroče koje odrasta u siromaštvu, da bi kao mladić, sticajem okolnosti, naglo stekao bogatstvo, a potom ga izgubio, naučivši da novac ne kupuje sreću. Wells je u roman unio dosta humora i vlastitih opažanja o klasnim razlikama u tadašnjem britanskom društvu; kasnije je tvrdio da mu je to najdražih od svih romana koje je napisao.
Roman je obrađen nekoliko puta - godine 1921. kao nijemi, a 1941. kao zvučni film. Godine 1963. je na londonskom West Endu postavljen mjuzikl Half a Sixpence, gdje je ulogu Kippsa tumačio Tommy Steele; četiri godine kasnije je snimljena filmska verzija mjuzikla.
