Editorial Review

Eddie and the giant bear are both lonesome. Their only companions are their teddy bears. While out for a walk Eddie sees a giant teddy. A sudden noise sends him scurrying to hide behind teddy. When he hears the bear's lament about being friendless, he pretends to talk for teddy. Of course he is found out, but the good news is that he and bear begin a friendship. Life takes an upward turn, because now neither is lonely anymore-"That's what having friends is for." A pleasant companion to Where's My Teddy? and It's the Bear?
