Book excerpt: Gust, Gust, Gust! is the story of a young boy's journey as he navigates his fear of the wind with its necessity to supply electricity and water to his village for survival. Gustavo, who is raised by his Tata (grandfather) in a small village in New Mexico, loves to play the bongos. Everyone in the village knew that Gustavo was afraid of the wind and is the reason why they called him Gust. Each time the wind blew, the villagers could hear the sounds of the bongos until one destructive storm forced the village elders to make a rash decision that impacted Gust and his Tata from ever playing the bongos again. Gust and his Tata go from villains to heroes as they are called on to save the village.
