Treasure Your Teddy Helen V. Allen
Billy Bear says; most children have a favourite comfort toy and this is the story of how an unwanted, unloved teddy bear became such a precious member of a new family. Nanny placed me on Abigail's bed and I eagerly awaited her next visit to Nanny and Granddad's house. When Abigail saw me for the very first time she giggled and pulled me into her arms. That was my very first hug and I'd never felt happier. I would also like to encourage children to take their unwanted toys to a charity shop instead of the tip and show them how rewarding it is to re-cycle things which still have a lot of life left in them and love to give.
