Sometimes Teddy Bears and their friends had days that just do not work out right. This big old 'friend' was crying so much over the Orangatang in the film that his eye suffered. We had all told our friend here not to put the hands near the face. The eye needed resewing on before the big button was lost.
We all forgot that the feet had toes. Rather than put his foot in the mouth our friend found comfort with the toe. Ho hum.
Our friend here is tall in height and very round at the middle. Although us big humans were not afraid of our friend's size the little humans were not sure of him. In order for our friend to be approached by the little humans something needed to be done. There was at least one Teddy Bear afternoon tea that he was invited to. The little humans also came. Some could only bring a smile while others brought friends or some food to share by all.There were games played and songs sung. The theme of the Afternoon tea was "Our World". Some of the little humans wanted our big friend here to tell them a story about being sooo big. But the problem was our friend had no voice. So the little humans took turn in a charades game.
Over the next few weeks though some friendly human made this big friendly toy into a puppet. When the next time our large friend came to play with the little humans the older ones had been practising how to talk and tell stories "puppet style'.
Over the years since this happened many of the people still remember our friend. They remember the ecological stories that were told. Some of these humans have each done something about their environment. They to now have a voice.
