By G. R. Diecedue Jr

Gustave Gator and the Giant Water SlideWhat does it mean to be brave? Is it to just be strong and smart and tough? Is it simply about helping those in need? But what if being brave means being afraid but still doing what you have to do anyway? Gustave Gator was considered the bravest citizen of Cypress Swampville. He was always ready to lend a helping hand. He is big and strong and sharp, and everyone looks up to him. However, Gustave has a secret fear that was about to be exposed.The folks of Cypress Swampville are celebrating the construction of a large water park in their area. It has everything - twisting rapids, lazy rivers, log rides and more. But the main attraction of the park was its giant water slide - and all who knew about it were waiting eagerly to try it out.Except for our Gustave. He had a great fear of water slides, and the height makes him feel weird. Well, he thought, he could at least avoid going to the water park altogether, so that his best friend Clovis cannot force him into the slide.But Gustave realized he would not be able to stay away from the water park for much longer. One of his close friends, Ernestine, would celebrate her birthday in a few week's time. And where else would she spend this special day in, but at the water park everyone was so excited about?When something goes wrong at Ernestine's party, Gustave, the only one smart enough and strong enough to set things right, will have to face his greatest fear in order to help a friend. Gustave has to understand how to be a true hero by learning the lesson of what real bravery is - overcoming his own weaknesses to lend a helping hand to those who need him.Find Out How Gustave Conquers His Fear!
