An Indie Next Pick!

After searching so long for a place to call home, the daring teddies-clever Buddy, shrewd Sunny, fearless Nothing, and wise Reginald-find few answers at the place where they were created, Furrington Industries. But with a new friend-a teddy of legend!-the teddies head back into the dangerous world to seek the secrets of their creation.

Soon the teddies find themselves surrounded by people who hated them, and discover that the founder of Furrington Industries, known as the Suit, is on trial for an unknown crime. Left reeling but determined, Buddy leads his friends-those that survive-through the protestors that line the streets outside and into the bowels of the courthouse . . . where they'll find out the true, incendiary reason the teddies were thrown away.
