"Some people write children's books for their own children," says Jez Alborough. "But I don't have any children. I write for the child I was." And it's clear that he remembers the experience well. His rhythmic writing makes his books a joy to read aloud, while his bold, colourful style is fun and appealing and enormously popular with children. His hilarious picture book Where's My Teddy? together with its sequels It's the Bear! and My Friend Bear, have sold more than a million copies. Jez Alborough and his wife live in Richmond, Surrey.
PreSchool-- Oversized pages covered with tall, leafy green trees set the stage for and reinforce the mood of this farcical tale of lost teddies. Reminiscent of McCloskey's Blueberries for Sal (Viking, 1948), the story tells of the mix-up of two stuffed toys, one belonging to a small boy and the other to a giant bear. The rhyming text will keep readers turning pages, while their fear of the unknown and the ensuing visual absurdity will keep them riveted. Although the real bear looms ominously large at first, he becomes less of a threat once it becomes clear that his only concern is his own teddy and not the trembling boy. Children will be reassured to find that creatures big and small need their steady comforts. --Martha Topol, Northwestern Michigan College, Traverse City, MI
