Summary

Molly and Bear go on a family camping trip in this second book in the Molly and the Bear middle grade graphic novel series based on the beloved comic strip “Bear with Me” by Bob Scott.

Molly and her family are excited about their annual summer camping trip. Well, except Molly’s dad, who didn’t want Bear to come. Molly would have thought her 800-pound bestie would be right at home in the woods, but the scaredy bear is terrified of campfires, rafting, spooky sounds that come from the woods at night, and most of all, other bears.

Still, Molly, is determined to make sure this trip brings her dad and Bear closer together. She hatches a series of plans to make her dad see how wonderful Bear truly is. But when Bear accidentally attracts other (wild) bears to the family’s cabin, that may be a bigger disaster than even Molly can fix.

Author Biography

Bob Scott lives in both the world of comic strips and animation. Born in Detroit, he began drawing at a young age by copying what he saw in the funny pages. After graduating from California Institute of the Arts, Bob entered the world of character animation and has worked for over thirty-five years in the industry as an animator, character designer, storyboard artist, and voice talent for Warner Brothers, DreamWorks, Pixar, and more. Bob has always wanted a comic strip of his own, and so “Bear with Me” (a.k.a. “Molly and the Bear”) was born and became a syndicated webcomic in 2010. In partnership with his wife, Vicki, Bob turned this webcomic into their middle grade debut, An Unlikely Pair.

Vicki Scott, CalArts animation grad, is currently a character and prop designer for Nickelodeon. She was a storyboard artist for the upcoming Garfield movie and the Apple TV+ series The Snoopy Show. Vicki has also worked in licensing and publishing, drawing Looney Tunes, Tiny Toons, Garfield, and Peanuts characters as seen on products ranging from apparel to giftware to parade floats to mud flaps. While she worked for the Schulz family, she wrote several graphic novels and short stories for the recent run of Boom comic books, currently being reprinted by Simon & Schuster.
