Gusta & Gusto Book 1

Gusta & Gusto – Horns and Hearts in Rhino Country, Book 1

Playful, clever, and lovingly told, these stories revolve around friendship, the courage to be authentic, changing perspectives, imagination, and inner strength—presented in an inspiring yet entertaining way, enriched with “animal” wisdom and gentle poetry. 

Through the many situations that the two rhinos, Gusta and Gusto, experience in the jungle of rhino life, they grow and develop. A confident attitude sustains their ways of thinking and inner convictions, and time and again, they discover the positive power of inner strength and beauty. At the heart of Book 1 are timeless themes, such as how to live a meaningful life, how to stand up for oneself, why birthday cakes originate from Greenland, why camels receive letters, what true friendship means, and why a magic lamp can be so important in life. 

Enjoyable reading for all generations: From ages 6 to 106
