When his new school hallways start to feel like a labyrinth, how will Gus the minotaur and his human pal Nick stay calm and find their way to the correct classroom? Find out in this action-packed early reader from comics artist Jeffrey Ebbeler. When his new school hallways start to feel like a labyrinth, how will Gus the minotaur and his human pal Nick stay calm and find their way to the correct classroom? Find out in this action-packed early reader from comics artist Jeffrey Ebbeler. It's Nick's first day at a new school! As he walks in, he meets an easily excitable and impatient minotaur named Gus. It's Gus' first day, too-so he grabs Nick's hand and charges straight into the building. There's so much to see and do! They dance along with band practice, bounce around the school gym, end up in the boiler room, and. . . okay. They're lost. They may not know where to go, but they know what to do- wait a minute, calm down, and retrace their steps so they can find their classroom. Young comics readers are sure to resonate with comics illustrator Jeffrey Ebbeler's hilarious, slapstick take on a common coming-of-age experience-and parents will love the subtle lessons of patience and critical thinking. Comics-lovers can now share the fun with their kids, students, siblings, and younger friends who are learning to read! I Like to Read Comics are perfect for kids who are challenged by or unengaged in reading, kids who love art, and the growing number of young comics fans. Filled with eye-catching art, humor, and terrific stories, these comics provide unique reading experiences for growing minds. Like their award-winning I Like to Read counterpart, I Like to Read Comics are created by celebrated artists and support reading comprehension to transform children into lifelong readers.
