When Emma's grandpa, Old Bob, gets a brand-new teddy bear for his birthday, he doesn't love it. But Emma does. Some years later, Emma returns Teddy, now well-loved and threadbare--which is what Old Bob wanted all along. With its expressive illustrations and realistic portrayal of child-toy interactions, this book offers a new twist on the teddy bear theme.
