A cute compilation of stories

I got this book from my aunt, who used to collect bears, a few years back. I was enthusiastic about the idea of a book about teddy bears, being a bear lover, myself, but wasn't sure about the "grown-ups" part (I was still rather young). But I skimmed through it, selecting the stories that sounded interesting, and I loved it. Recently, I went looking through my bookshelves (I'm also a reader, by the way), and I found the copy, and I sat down and read a few of the stories, and it renewed my love for teddy bears. At almost 16 years old, I found myself giving a great big hug to my beloved bear, Pigwidgeon (Named after Ron Weasley's owl in the Harry Potter book series), and longing to add to my collection. So, whether you're considered an adult or not, I think this book is a good refresher course for collectors and bear-lovers in general.

A thought provoking book

The book has a good variety of stories some of which are light hearted while others are disturbing and unsettling. It was an enjoyable read.
