About the book (from the dust jacket)
Once there was a little doll. Her name was Edith. She lived in a nice house and had everything she needed except someone to play with. She was lonely! Then one morning Edith looked into the garden and there stood two bears!
And of course Edith and the two bears became friends. This is their story, with pictures showing all the funny things and silly things and exciting things they did together. You’ll like it.
About the author (From the dust jacket)
DARE WRIGHT was born in Canada but she was raised in the United States and now lives in New York. She started her career as a photographer’s fashion model, and then went around to the other side of the camera and has been a highly successful freelance photographer ever since. Her editorial photography appears in such magazines as Town and Country and Good Housekeeping; her photographs for fashion ads can be seen in Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, and others. “Edith” has belonged to Miss Wright since she was seven, but she was a “lonely doll” until a few years ago when Miss Wright helped her brother to choose a bear for a small friend. They came home with two bears, and “Edith” looked so happy with them that Miss Wright kept “Little Bear.” After a good deal of shopping for an animal with the right expression her brother found “Mr. Bear,” and the family was complete. Out came Miss Wright’s camera, and this book began.
