    About Grandpa and Jake

    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? “Not this time,” says Grandpa, and has Jake close his eyes before going into . . . the library!

    Praise

    “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
