Book Reviews of The Teddy Bear
Book Review: A story that teaches compassion
Summary: 5 Stars
"The Teddy Bear" is one of those rare children's books that I've read that actually made me cry. I read this to my 4-year-old last night and we were both touched by this heartfelt story - a little boy accidentally loses his much-loved teddy bear at a restaurant and the bear is eventually rescued by a homeless man. Though the boy pines for his teddy, the passage of time has the boy moving on as does the bear - the bear seems to have found someone else who loves him, and perhaps needs him more. One day, whilst out at the park with his parents, the little boy sees the bear sitting by itself on a bench and takes it, only to realise that the old homeless man misses the bear too - and this is where I started bawling. The little boy realises that the old man needs the bear even more than he does for the boy has parents to love him, but the old man has no one. This poignant story conveys the message of compassion in such a simple yet powerful manner. At the end of the story, my little one asked me why the boy gave the teddy back, and it made for an enlightening conversation for both of us. I truly love this book and recommend it to all parents of young children.
