Gonzo the Great (book)

Gonzo the Great is a 1989 Muppet storybook about how Gonzo earned the name, "Gonzo the Great."
Following a dream about crowds of people cheering for him, Gonzo wakes up and tells Camilla that he doesn't "want to be just plain Gonzo anymore." He needs a new act so that he can be Gonzo the Great.
After eating oatmeal for breakfast, he gets an idea for an act and rushes out to tell his friends about it. Each of them, busy with their own activities, offers a lackluster response. But Gonzo doesn't want to be "Gonzo the Okay" or "Gonzo the Not Bad," he wants to be "Gonzo the Great."
When he hears hears music in the distance and comes across a circus preparing a tent for a performance, he gets an idea. That night, his friends appear in the audience to witness Gonzo riding a bicycle on a tightrope, balancing Camilla on his head while he juggles twelve bowls of oatmeal. Just like in his dream, the feat earns him thunderous applause from a crowd chanting, "Hooray for Gonzo the Great!"
Everyone wants to take Gonzo home to celebrate with a party, but the ringmaster asks if he wants to travel with the circus; they're leaving tonight. Gonzo's friends beg him to stay, convincing him that he's always Gonzo the Great to them. That night, Gonzo and his friends feast at a large table filled with cakes and other goodies to honor their friend.
