Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

This is a lovely Christmas story about a bear who gets left behind in Santa's sleigh, but is determined that Madeleine, the little girl he was destined for, should not be disappointed on Christmas Day. After quite an adventure the little bear eventually reaches his destination, a little bedraggled perhaps, but exactly what a little girl called Madeleine wants.

Anna Kiernan's illustrations are a delight from start to finish and her beautifully jolly, rotund Father Christmas is exactly what a Father Christmas should be. Everyone will be dreaming of owning a gorgeous teddy bear after reading this story. --Miranda Warren

Product Description

It was Christmas Eve. Father Christmas put the last few toys into a sack and swung it onto his back. But the sack was old and worn. It had a hole in one corner. "Eek!" said the bear as he slid through the hole...and watched Father Christmas leave without him!

By AMG TOP 1000 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
From the author of around 35 books including ~
EDISONS FANTASTIC PHONOGRAPH, HORSE STORIES THAT REALLY HAPPENED and RUBY RED AND SKY BLUE comes a story about a Teddy bear who ends up being a self delivering Christmas present!
First published in 1994, this book is author Diana Kimpton's first and most successful paperback {half a million copies sold worldwide} and is simply, by humorously illustrated by Anna Kiernan.
I loved this book as a kid {and if I'm honest, I still do now!} because I thought the Teddy bear character was endearing, and because MADELEINE {the girls name mentioned throughout the story} sounds like MADELINE {my middle name!}
This book is very easy to read {perfect reading for 3-6 year olds} has colour illustrations on every page and would make the perfect distraction for impatient children on an early Christmas morning,

Utterly fabulous!
