Synopsis

When Emma's grandfather, Old Bob, is given a teddy bear, she sees immediately that he is not going to love the bear as much as she would. So soon she persuades Old Bob to 'lend' her the bear, a loan that lasts a very long time. When Emma eventually tires of the bear and Old Bob finds it again he realises that now indeed he can treasure this favourite toy. A delightful ode to the powers of a well-loved toy.

Media Reviews
A little girl watches her grandfather, Old Bob, receive a teddy bear for his birthday . . . What Emma thinks, however, is that Grandpa doesn't love the bear the way it should be loved, so she 'borrows' the bear and gives it the kind of life she thinks it deserves . . . A great read for grandparents and grandchildren. - Booklist
