Books Tell You Why, Inc.

A Fine first printing of the first edition in alike dust-jacket.

In this book, Coover tells the story of a bear known as Gloomy Gus, who was a star player on the Chicago Bears in the 1940s. Gus was a lonesome bear who didn't seem to be very happy, and he was often quoted as saying that he was "gloomy because I'm unhappy." But as the book progresses, it becomes clear that Gus was more than just a grumpy bear - he was a talented player who had a great sense of humor and was well-loved by his fans. Ultimately, Gus's story teaches us that happiness isn't always easy to find, but it's worth striving for.; 8vo; $6.00.
