A Sparkling Sequel toHow to Catch a Bear Who Loves to Read!Follow Julia and her animals friends on a their nighttime sailing adventure, as they try to retrieve books from a library for their campfire story time. A captivating tale celebrating friendship, courage and the love of books!

Sail to the library under the stars in this twinkling sequel to How to Catch a Bear Who Loves to Read.

One gentle summer evening, Julia is camping out in the forest with her animal friends. Everyone gathers for the night’s most eagerly awaited event: story time by the campfire. But when Julia digs through her bag, she discovers . . . that she has forgotten to bring her book! 

Will Julia and her friends have to go to bed without a story? Or will they bravely join Bertrand, the bear who loves to read, in navigating to his favorite book scavenging spot?

An ode to libraries and librarians, this scintillating new adventure will captivate readers of all ages with its vivid, enchanting illustrations. As the poet Emily Dickinson once wrote, there is no boat like a book to bear us lands away.

As a bonus, A Starlit Trip to the Library includes the lyrics to “Julia’s Song”–– an original lullaby written and composed by co-author Andrew Katz and performed by Taes Leavitt, aka Boots from the two-time JUNO Award-winning children’s music duo SPLASH’N BOOTS. A link to the song video is included at the back of the book, and the song is also available on music streaming services.

" Katz and Léveillé-Trudel’s story celebrates books, libraries, the act of storytelling and the comfort of a well-told bedtime tale " -- Tessie Riggs * Canadian Review of Materials *
" The illustrations in this were DIVINE. I love when they make an already wonderful story even more amazing. Two pages in and I knew I needed a hard copy. " -- Megan Mann * Librarian for the School City of Hammond *
"Transportation enthusiasts will enjoy spotting the many forms of transit found along the hair’s flight path (...). The playful text has momentum built in with the pursuit of Momo’s hair, but Hamel’s quirky art steals the show."
