In 1916, at the height of World War I, a Canadian teddy bear traveled to France in a care package destined for Lawrence Browning Rogers -- a gift from his ten-year-old daughter, Aileen. When Teddy returned from the front lines more than a year later, he did so alone; Lieutenant Rogers, along with many other Canadian soldiers, died at the battle of Passchendaele. Today Teddy resides at the Canadian War Museum as one of the most beloved exhibits in the building. In 2002, Lawrence's granddaughter Roberta Rogers Innes found Teddy, the letters, and other war memorabilia inside a large family briefcase. As she delved deeper, Roberta discovered how a Canadian familys strength was tested during the war and how a tiny bear became an enduring memento of their love. Now, in "A Bear in War," Roberta's daugher Stephanie Innes and Harry Endrulat share Teddy's remarkable story. Each chapter in Teddy's tale is brought to life through Brian Deines' poignant art. The result is a powerful, moving piece of literature -- a picture book destined to become a classic.
