Galloping Gus by author Glynis M. Belec is a delightful rhyming book that children of a young age are sure to love.

Gus, is a school bus who loves to splash in the puddles, but his driver Simon like Gus clean so naturally he avoids getting Gus dirty. So at night Gus sneaks out to splash in the puddles. He's very disobedient school bus! Simon can't figure out why Gus is always so dirty in the morning, when he puts him to bed nice and clean, with his chrome all polished. So one night he tucks Gus into bed and waits to see how he is getting so dirty. Unfortunately for Gus, he soon learns how deceiving someone can really hurt.

Kids will learn why they should obey and the importance of forgiveness in this charming little book appropriate for ages 2 to 6.
