Gus's Garage
Gus's Garage
Leo Timmers at his best: effortlessly simple text, intricately detailed illustrations, and vehicles galore.
"The vehicles are wonderfully detailed and the story is strong and simple—Gus's Garage is a perfectly formed Leo Timmers book." Julia Marshall, Publisher
Gus's Garage features Gus’s workshop, which is chockful of useless odds and ends. But when his friend Rico comes over with a problem—his scooter seat is way too small for a rhino—Gus finds just the thing to solve it.
One by one, Gus’s friends come to his garage with their troubles, and he provides ingenious solutions. There's a cooling system made with a fridge that doubles as an ice-cream machine, and a burst of speed courtesy of a rocket blaster trombone.
Soon, the workshop is almost empty. Is anything left to solve Gus’s own problem at the end of a long day?
