  • Ted Bear Esq. - his photo album

    Christine Larsen

    language (Christine Larsen, March 7, 2013)
    Here is my best old mate, Ted Bear Esq. (lovingly known as Ted to me all the 65 years we have shared, so far!) It all began modestly enough with some photos of him for his story on Squidoo - 'A Little Known Aussie, Ted Bear Esq.', but do you think this was enough for this furry prima donna? No way! He beat his hairy chest for a bit, then demanded a full exposure of his ‘togetherness’ with all his friends. He would agree to one photo only of the Knitty Gritty Kids, growling that they had already had more than their fair share - this was his “moment in the sun”. (Actually, one of the photos in this next book shows just that… his beloved early morning sunbath in my Bathroom window). And then, more… MUCH more than this… he's demanding heavily expanded stories about his mates and his special friendships with them all.Truly… a Mother's work is never done!

  • Almost Unbearable Tales

    Christine Larsen

    language (Christine Larsen, March 31, 2013)
    Well-ll-ll, he's b-a-c-k… my best old mate, Ted Bear Esq. (the Esq. bit was his idea – he thinks he's quite grand when that is added to his official title). After sharing more than 65 years of Life with him, I don't need anything to raise him in my estimation, or make him any more loveable – he's my Ted – what more can I say?It was all meant to start and end with a simple photographic record - Ted Bear Esq. – his photo album - but no, that wasn't enough. He went on to challenge my wordsmith ability to create written cameos about the photos of him and his best mates, posturing all over the house! Well-ll-ll… this book is the result. Resistance was useless, he just moped and looked pleadingly and heart-breakingly at me all day, every day… until I could stand no more, and weakened (as he always knew I would).Sit yourself down, get comfy and prepare to enjoy Ted Bear's particularly quirky sense of humour.

I did not let them down as other soul-less, so-called 'parents' had.Deserted and discarded like so much rubbish, each one begged for rescue. Some wore their saddest, most tearful expressions, whilst others relied on an unexplainable magnetism to draw me to them, to be saved from . . . who knows what? I know I didn’t imagine that whispered "P-l-e-a-s-e save me."Unloved – after the hundreds of loving stitches that created them.Unwanted and denied basic human and toy rights – after some dedicated knitter breathed life and souls into these wee beings.At times, it’s a concrete jungle out there. Here are just a few of the genuine stories of born-again small folk, and their triumph against all odds. These stories are about the True Grit of the Knitty Gritty Kids.
