In 'Hotel Bruce,' the perpetually grumpy bear Bruce returns from a southern migration with his goslings, only to discover his peaceful den has been converted into a lively, chaotic hotel by three enterprising mice. The story follows Bruce's increasingly frustrated attempts to reclaim his home amidst a flurry of animal guests, including a possum pillow fight and a fox with questionable culinary intentions. His own goslings even join the hotel staff, adding to the delightful mayhem. This humorous picture book, suitable for ages 4-11, explores themes of sharing, unexpected guests, and dealing with big feelings like grumpiness, all wrapped in a wonderfully whimsical package.
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.
