{"product_id":"9780802854070","title":"Brother Hugo and the Bear","description":"\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eA clever tale that will charm book lovers\u003c\/i\u003e Brother Hugo can't return his library book — the letters of St. Augustine — because, it turns out, the precious book has been devoured by a bear! Instructed by the abbot to borrow another monastery's copy and create a replacement, the hapless monk painstakingly crafts a new book, copying it letter by letter and line by line. But when he sets off to return the borrowed copy, he finds himself trailed by his hungry new friend. Once a bear has a taste of letters, it appears, he’s rarely satisfied!\u003ci\u003eBrother Hugo and the Bear\u003c\/i\u003e is loosely based on a note found in a twelfth-century manuscript — and largely on the creative imaginings of author Katy Beebe. Lavishly illustrated by S. D. Schindler in the style of medieval manuscripts, this humorous tale is sure to delight readers who have acquired their own taste for books.","brand":"Eerdmans, William B.
