Old Bear
It's nice to find a potential classic and I'm sure this is one. This endearing story of the rescue of an old teddy bear from the attic, where he has been banished as being too old and decrepit to play with, has some of the most realistic and touchable pictures I have seen in a long time and a completely convincing and well told story as well. All the children enjoyed this and it was in constant demand for reading and listening to as soon as it went on the shelves. We now have two copies... say no more!
