This is normally not the sort of book I would think to try for my nieces and nephews, but it was on sale. It's actually kind of hilarious! Gus is really gross and smelly and doesn't bathe, and his manners belong in a trash can. (All of this is told in rhyme, of course.) Like another reviewer said, I wondered what the point was, but I kept reading, and it paid off. There's a pretty good lesson here for your young readers!So if you've got kids who like to laugh at yucky things, this is the book for them.
