When Gus the rhino and Sully the mouse check out the weather each morning, they see and feel the same thing, but they experience it a different way. Bright sun is too hot for Gus and perfect for beach-loving Sully. Clouds inspire Gus's imagination ("I see a bunny!") but they just look like clouds to Sully. The wind is perfect for kite-flying for one, but threatens to blow someone small away. Whether rain or snow or sleet, Gus and Sully are on the spot, reporting back in their unique way. Wielding ink and watercolor, Steve Light ventures into an appealing new art style with a simple, funny board book ideal for children just beginning to explore the wide world around them.
Light (A Spider Named Itsy) comically considers weather-related activities and responses in this conceptual board book. . . a gentle lesson in both varied perspectives and meteorological vocabulary.

Two friends, a rhino named Gus and a mouse named Sully, explore the weather in this enchanting board book. Minimal text takes a backseat to illustrations that are humorous and capture the weather accurately. A fun read that will charm young and old alike. ÂHighly recommended.
