Critics Review
“Don’t we all wonder and worry about what the ‘right’ kind of gift to give is for the holidays?…. I was captivated by the idea that the reader was being led on a serious mission. Bears from all corners of the town come together for a secret meeting. Just as quickly as they meet, one bear gives a nod, and they all depart again. The bears succeed in their crafty plan to replace all the gifts under Christmas trees with handwritten notes. When the townspeople find notes instead of sparkly packages … they are moved in unexpected ways to connect with loved ones. Will the beloved or long forgotten teddy bears with such big hearts return the original gifts under the trees? You’ll have to pick up the book yourself to find out.” –Goodreads with Ronna
“Picture the holiday spirit. Wonderful new book…. ideal for gift-giving….thousands of stuffed teddies go to heroic extremes to remember people who are sometimes forgotten.” –Nicholas Basbanes, Orlando Sentinel
