A Library Book for Bear
Although he sees no need for more books to read, Bear agrees to accompany Mouse to the library.
Curmudgeonly Bear succumbs to Mouse’s entreaties and discovers the joy of books in a hilarious story that fans will covet for their own library.
Bear does not want to go to the library. He is quite sure he already has all the books he will ever need. Yet the relentlessly cheery Mouse, small and grey and bright-eyed, thinks differently. When Bear reluctantly agrees to go with his friend to the big library, neither rocket ships nor wooden canoes are enough for Bear’s picky tastes. How will Mouse ever find the perfect book for Bear?
Children will giggle themselves silly as Bear’s arguments give way to his inevitable curiosity, leading up to a satisfying story hour and a humorously just-right library book.

The book, a charming addition to the Bear and Mouse series, blends wit and style in storytelling, showing Bear and Mouse's contrasting personalities. Illustrated with Denton’s expressive artwork, the story highlights Bear's amusing transformation from scepticism to embracing the joy of the library, underscoring the theme with humour and warmth. The character dynamics are engaging, with Mouse subtly guiding Bear in a tale that appeals to both seasoned and new young readers.
