Synopsis: |
For ages 4-8. This is the quintessential book about the teddy bear, telling the story of the beginnings of the huggable stuffed animal loved all over the world by children and grown ups alike. It is a wonderful story because it celebrates not one but four fathers, as well as a life-saving deed that warmed the heart and inspired the head of the sweet shop man who actually made the first teddy bear. The author relates charmingly how each of the four became a father of Teddy and all because a powerful president spared the life of one little bear, and another man celebrated the life-sparing act with a toy bear whose descendants have inspired love around the world ever since. This is a new, larger size edition of this much-loved classic. |
