INTRODUCING TEDDY
Jessica Walton
Introducing Teddy is a heart-warming story about being yourself and being a good friend, while encouraging the youngest readers to think about gender identity. Errol and his teddy, Thomas, are best friends who do everything together. One day, Errol nds that Thomas the Teddy is sad and
Errol can’t gure out why. Then Thomas the Teddy nally tells Errol what he has been afraid to say: ‘In my heart, I’ve always known that I’m a girl Teddy, not a boy Teddy. I wish my name was Tilly.’
haven Kid’s Say reviewer Ava writes: “I really enjoyed reading this book because I love the meaning of the saying ‘Be yourself and you’ll always be happy’. I was glad Teddy chose to become Tilly to be happy. Another reason I loved this book is because one of the characters is named Ava. Everyone should read it.”
