An Extraordinary Bear


 Acrylic on Cradled Board   5x7

Teddy considers himself a rugged outdoors bear, as he reads his books about the Northwoods bundled in his hat and scarf, in front of a sunny window. He doesn’t like to get too dirty or cold. He doesn’t like bugs landing on him. He doesn’t eat too many berries because they could give him diarrhea. He doesn’t like to walk on wet rocks because he could slip and fall. He doesn’t like loud thunder or noisy crickets. He’s not a real bear, but he thinks he is. He’d like to go to a home where there is not a lot of yelling, lots of pets, and where he can watch his shows when they are on.
