After the events of Hotel Bruce, the curmudgeonly bear shares his home with not only his four geese, but three rowdy mice besides! Fed up with their shenanigans, Bruce sets off to find a rodent-free household. But as usual, nothing goes quite according to plan...

(synopsis from Goodreads)

Bruce is finding his home a bit crowded. So he packs up the kids (his four geese) and sets off for a new home. At first, nothing seems quite right, but then the family finds exactly what they're looking for. Unfortunately, it seems that what Bruce was running away from has followed them...

These books are all cute in their way, but I'm finding that I'm just not enjoying the subsequent installments as much as I did Mother Bruce. The pictures are great and the premise is funny, but I guess I'm just wanting... more.

Definitely a must-read if you're a fan of the character, though. And there's always something fun to notice in the illustrations.
