Teddy Love!:
This book appeals to all teddy bear lovers- young and old! It is a great way to share history with children. My kindergarten class throughly enjoyed it cover to cover! A must for anyone who ever had / or has a teddy bear!!

Steph---a seventh grader:
This book was fabulisly written and has great pictures. I had Frank Murphy for a teacher and he is a wonderful writer! This book is a great way for young children to learn how to read. Mr. Murph u did a great job! -Steph

Priceless Response:
I didn't read the book. I gave it as a birthday gift to my niece who is a teddy bear enthusiast. The rating I gave was based upon her overwhelming response to the book. She was so taken with the story that she excitedly wrote a letter to the author. To his credit, the author responded with a handwritten letter that, along with the book, became a show-and-tell project for her 2nd grade class. She talks about the whole thing with stars in her eyes. It's truly priceless. I give 5 stars to both the book and the author.

Cuddling Teddy Roosevelt?!:
Cuddling Teddy Roosevelt is kinda strange...but cuddling a soft bear is better. Who would've known that the teddy bear was named after a president! In this children's picture book, children will be amazed that they know a bit of history after they read this beautifully written/illustrated book. ~Erin Age 11

A Must Have Book:
The Legend of the Teddy Bear is a "must have" book for every home. It's a beautifully illustrated story that all children will enjoy while actually learning a piece of history. Imagine a child in your life explaining the story to an adult who doesn't know how the teddy bear got his name! This book belongs on all bookshelves, it will captivate children and adults alike. Looking forward to reading more from Frank Murphy!
