A Bear Named George

0/5 ( ratings)

From the dustjacket :
"George is a teddy bear who knows he is not a girl, but Ellen always calls him Elizabeth and stuffs him into prickly party dresses and, even worse, tight ballet tutus. George isn't at all happy doing plies and arabesques. He shares his troubles with his friend, the cat pajama bag. Then, Ellen gets a beautiful doll for Christmas, and George and the cat are packed away in the attic.

"Next, there is Karen, who decides George is a baby and gets him all soggy with mil and sticky with Pablum. But George is a bear with a manly heart, and he dreams of a red jacket with gold braid and buttons, and hears rhythms in the rain and noises around him. Karen gets a puppy, and George and his friend are sent back to the attic.

"When the awake years later, there is Peter, and everything has changed. How George comes into his own at last will delight legions of teddy bear lovers.
