Illustrated by
Lisa Flather.
A young girl and her favorite teddy bear share typical activities, including swinging, walking in the rain, and bedtime at the end of a busy day. The large, bold typeface and simple repetitive text suit the preschool audience, though the story is not especially original. The double-page illustrations in pastels, colored pencil, and gouache convey the pair's special relationship.
