Bookroo's summary

Join Gus the rhino and Sully the mouse as they navigate their unique morning rituals. From breakfast choices to brushing styles, each has their own way of getting ready. Gus prefers a healthy start, while Sully opts for sugary treats. As they prepare for school, Gus meticulously packs his backpack, while Sully crams in everything imaginable. Will their contrasting styles lead to chaos or a smooth start to the day? Discover the delightful antics of this charming duo as they embrace their differences and head off to school with excitement.

From the publisher

Good morning! The amiable pair are back to show us how they start their day in a sweet, funny story for little ones from award-winning creator Steve Light. Sully, wake up! We have to get ready. It’s time for Gus the rhino and Sully the mouse to start their morning routine, beginning with a nice big stretch. They’ve each got a special style: healthy breakfast for Gus and nothing but sugar-frosted for Sully. Up-and-down with the toothbrush for one, and side-to-side for the other. Sully’s quick to put on pants one leg at a time, while Gus tries both legs in one (uh-oh, pants problem!). And though Gus carefully checks the necessary backpack items, and Sully stuffs everything inside but the kitchen sink, they’re both super excited to head off to school. We’re ready!
