Synopsis

Another classic picture book from the best-selling creator of Kipper and Wibbly Pig. Baggy Brown was born at Better Bears Limited. Only he wasn't born as Baggy Brown, but Number One. And as a special limited edition bear, he was due to be presented to Princess Sophie, daughter of King and Queen of Thingland. But this isn't quite what happened. This is the story of how Alfie found and named Baggy Brown and the beginnings of a very special friendship.

Media Reviews
An endearing tale with the usual Mick Inkpen appeal. -- The Children's Bookseller Echoing the theme of the children's classic The Velveteen Rabbit, Baggy Brown reminds children that the best-loved toys are usually the oldest and shabbiest, and that being scruffy and worn is a sign of having been loved. It's a simple, heartwarming story about an old bear and a little princess who becomes friends with the son of a factory worker and my son has asked for it every night since I brought it home (and twice fallen asleep clutching it). -- The Observer Utterly charming! As is Mick Inkpen's BAGGY BROWN (Hodder, GBP10.99), the story of a teddy that goes astray and is found by a boy with a destiny! -- Daily Express charming new picture book -- Suffolk Free Press A warm-hearted fairy tale with, of course, a happy-ever-after ending. -- The Scotsman Well illustrated with touching polot...still retains that Inkpen magic, especially the front cover, which makes you want to hold onto and hug the book forever. -- My Child
