Hello, friends!
So happy to be teaming up with Disney-Hyperion! We are kicking off Monday sharing this adorable children’s book called Hotel Bruce (release tomorrow October 18th) + a fun giveaway! Yay!
I thought my oldest was the only one who was going to love this book, it turned out my 2 year old daughter is madly in love with it, too. She “reads” it every day. She knows by heart thanks to the amazing illustrations! Simply adorable and fun!
SYNOPSIS
When Bruce gets home from a southern migration trip with his goslings, he is tired. He is grumpy. And he is definitely not in the mood to share his home with the trio of mice who have turned his den into a hotel.
There’s a possum pillow fight wreaking havoc in one room, a fox luring guests into a stew in the kitchen, and a snuggly crew of critters hogging the bed. Bruce growls and grumbles and tries to throw them all out, but the entrepreneurial mice just can’t take a hint. Bruce is in a little over his head, especially once the goslings join the staff. Will this grumpy bear ever get his quiet, peaceful den back to himself?
ABOUT THE CREATOR
Ryan T. Higgins is the author/illustrator of Mother Bruce. He does NOT live with four geese, but he and his family do live with a tortoise and a menagerie of other pets. At one time or another, Ryan has been friends with a porcupine, a raccoon, a beaver, dozens of mice, and a couple of squirrels, but he has never found a moose in his bed. He always peeks under the covers, though.
RELEASE DATE
October 18th, 2016
Age: 3-5
This book is just adorable and the reason why I love introducing books here on our blog, it is because my kids are the reason why I do what I do. They inspire me every day! Beautiful craft, design ideas and party themes, I normally get inspiration from books we read together. Maybe the books I get the chance to introduce to you might inspire you in so many beautiful ways as well. That’s my hope!
While crafting this post, I felt inspired to design something for all of us! I love the quote by Garrison Keillor, “A book is a gift you can open again and again.” I decided to create a printable sign you can frame it for either your kid’s room or reading corner. Just download and print for your personal use here.
