Summary
In this heartwarming intergenerational story, Grandpa Bear introduces his grandson Jake to a very special place—the library!
“Let’s turn the TV off,” says Grandpa to Jake. “There’s some place I’d like to show you… a place my Grandpa took me when I was your age.”
As the two of them walk through the busy town, Grandpa shares the favorite places he and his own grandpa went together… and Little Jake keeps guessing where they are going. The movies? The baseball park? The beach?

Critics Review
“A bear receives an introduction to the library in this whimsically illustrated, day-in-the-life-style picture book … Fortenberry aces Jake’s toddler-esque dialogue, but the story’s real charm is in its creaturely illustrations and sweet intergenerational bond.” –Publishers Weekly
