School Library Journal - 05/01/2025 Gr 1–4—In this latest "Mother Bruce" tale, Bruce reluctantly becomes an environmental inspiration for the entire community. It's a seamless continuation of his story, perfectly introducing the chaos of Bruce's backstory as the begrudging caretaker to a gaggle of geese and mice. As he searches for peace at his favorite fishing hole, he gets swept up in a preservation protest. It continues with typically sharp dialogue, contrasting community enthusiasm with the grumpy bear who can't help but get embroiled in the situation. It's a perfect introduction to advocacy, protesting, discussing with town councils, and even finding legal loopholes. The back matter expands on those themes, describing how we can help save the planet in our homes, community, and more. VERDICT A great addition to Mother Bruce's exploits. - Copyright 2025 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
