      Wenn ein Teddybär älter wird: Teddy darf jede Nacht bei Clara im Bett schlafen. Er wird von ihr verwöhnt. Als er sich jedoch einmal im Spiegel betrachtet, fällt ihm auf, wie schäbig er aussieht. Diese Erkenntnis macht ihn traurig, weil er weiss, was mit alten Sachen geschieht. Ihm ist klar, dass ihn Clara bald wegwerfen wird. Zu seiner grossen Überraschung kommt es anders: Das Mädchen hält ihm die Treue und zeigt ihm, dass nichts ihre Liebe zu ihm erschüttern kann. Ein wunderschönes warmherziges Bilderbuch, mit einfachen, aber ausdrucksvollen Illustrationen. Ab 4 Jahren, ausgezeichnet, Frau MK.
