BROTHER HUGO AND THE BEAR
Book ID/图书代码： 14542015B85566
English Summary/英文概要： 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!
Brother Hugo and the Bear 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.

Awards/获奖情况：《学校图书馆期刊》评论：“该书融合了悬疑、幽默、历史，非常有趣。”《科克斯评论》：“快来认识一只喜欢书、或者说喜欢吃书的熊吧，这本书非常有趣，其中的插画用花饰和金色、灰色和棕色阴影加以装饰，符合了其中世纪的原始手稿，丰富的历史知识也能让读者学到很多知识。”《纽约时代周刊》评论：“有趣、诙谐，有教育意义。”"School Library Journal" (STARRED review) Combines suspense, humor, and information in a handsome, entertaining package. "Kirkus Reviews" (STARRED review) "Prepare to be charmed by a bear who loves words or at least loves to eat them. . . . The rhythm of the text is antique but lucid and sweet, and the pictures, festooned with curlicues and decorated in shades of gold, gray and brown, echo the manuscript illuminations that inspired them. Rich backmatter gives all the historical background without detracting from the essential spark of the tale. . . . This accurate (if abbreviated) delineation of the process of medieval manuscript bookmaking shines thanks to the fey twist of ursine longing for the written word." "New York Times" Interesting, wry and educational. "
