Mother Bruce is a delightful tale about Bruce, a bear who enjoys living alone and indulging in fancy gourmet recipes he finds on the internet. However, his solitary life takes an unexpected turn when the goose eggs he's cooking for breakfast hatch, turning Bruce into something new—a mother.

The New York Times bestselling Mother Bruce returns in a brand-new board book format, perfect for the youngest readers and certain to attract new fans eager to enjoy the series.

Bruce the bear appreciates his solitude, along with his penchant for eating eggs. But his plan is disrupted when his hard-boiled goose eggs reveal themselves to be real, live goslings. Bruce's appetite vanishes, and matters complicate further when the goslings assume he's their mother. Despite his efforts to guide the geese south, Bruce finds himself struggling to get rid of his new companions. What's a bear to do?
