Description
From the New York Times best-selling creator of Goodnight, Goodnight Construction Site and Steam Train Dream Train, Tom Lichtenheld, comes a laugh-out-loud story of a runaway teddy bear's secret life, now available in a sturdy board book edition.
Louis the bear has had enough.
From day one, life has been one indignity after another. If he's not being used as a hankie, he's being hung out to dry-literally. (No one likes clothespins used on their ears!) This teddy is sneaking away just as soon as he can. Then again, no use running off in the rain . . . or during a show-and-tell routine. Maybe Louis has something to lose, after all.
This fresh and funny take on a teddy bear come to life is a salty and sweet, grumpy and tender, sly tribute to the ties that bind. This sturdy board book edition is perfect for the youngest of readers.
