AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Gus LOVES wrestling. There's only one thing he loves more than wrestling and that's Mardi Gras when he and his sister get to dress up and parade through the streets with their mums while everyone claps. So when his mums ban him from wrestling because it's too violent, he ingeniously works out a way to combine his two loves and win over his mums again.'
