Description

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.
