"My teddy's special. Stripy Ted. / He's not allowed to leave my bed." Celebrating an important relationship in the lives of preschoolers, this endearing tale follows the imaginary adventures of a boy and his teddy bear, as they explore mountains and jungles and outrun all manner of dragons and wild animals. In time, the teddy becomes old and worn-out, yet his best friend only loves him better for it. In her paintings Katie Cleminson captures the snug intimacy of home and the joyous adventures of their fantasy world.
