Set in a village in the heart of the Old Woods, the magical world of the teddy bear shop and the heart-warming stories of Bartie and his friends will captivate children and parents alike. Julie and Amanda began writing short stories all about Bartie Bristle and the other favourite toys for the children that came to their shop, with Julie reimagined as Mrs T and Amanda as Rose.
Published by Walker Books and beautifully illustrated by Elke Boschinger, this stunning treasury has been written by Julie Tatchell and Amanda Middleditch, who together are known as 'The Teddy Bear Ladies' and perhaps most notably as stars of the BBC's The Repair Shop.
