Customer Reviews

Wonderful, sweet book!

I discovered this book at our local library, and our four-year-old daughter loved listening to it so much that we actually purchased a copy. The everyday adventures of a young girl and her teddy bear, it manages to be engaging, sweet, and innocent, without being saccharine or cloying. My two and a half and eight year olds and my husband enjoyed it as well! We read a lot of books, and for a four year old, I would recommend this one above all others.

Utterly charming!

Deborah is a 5-6 yr. old girl living in England c. 1960 who adores her teddy bear, Teddy Robinson, and together they have fun adventures around the house or with friends. The writing is very graceful, using a delightful blend of fantasy and innocence but thankfully without gratuitous sugar-coated soppiness. The characters are all respectful of each other, have an excellent sense of humor, and are thoroughly endearing.This book is a compilation taken largely from the books Dear Teddy Robinson and More About Teddy Robinson. I read them in 1970 when I was 6, living in England with my parents, and rediscovered them recently with my own children (boys aged 3 & 6). Each chapter is a delightful bedtime story.
