Heartwarming
This charming book is a must read.I received it as a gift and couldn't put it down.It was heartwarming, funny and sometimes a little sad.It is a true tribute to the teddy bear which is loved by humanity and pets of all ages.

"A NEW TWIST TO A TEDDY BEAR BOOK"
It was so refreshing to read a "different" kind of bear book. I loved the essence the author deplicted between teddy bears and their keepers!!The stories within this book were so heartwarming that I found myself reading them again and that is something I rarely do with a book.I loved the fact that these were true stories and I thought the author's way of telling a story was like sitting on the front porch and listening to my grandparents tales.The pictures were outstanding and the vintage photos took me back to a time I never lived.I think this book is for everyone, not just a teddy bear lover.When a book can put a tear in your eye and also make u chuckle out loud, I feel it has accomplished the ultimate.A MUST read for the year and I think it will make a grrreat gift for all of my friends.I hope there will be a sequel!!!!

READ THIS BOOK -- You won't be able to put it down!
Do you just need to feel good? Want to believe that the world can be a better place?Then I highly recommend In Search of Teddy.It is beautifully written with some of the most heartfelt stories that I have ever read.Don't let the teddy bear cover fool you.This book is about the human condition and the beauty of living life and simple things.I am reading it a second time -- something that I rarely ever do.I have, also, purchased several copies for friends.I am a avid reader and this is my favorite book this year.You don't have to be a teddy bear collector to love this book, you just have to be human.This author has trulycaptured the human spirit.If there was ever a time for a feel good book, now is the time, and In Search of Teddy is the book.I LOVE THIS BOOK. ...
