One Bear + One Diary = 17 Happy Children... Millicent Withers is the owner of a teddy bear shop filled with a variety of unusual bears. When her granddaughter, Emily, is in need of a special furry friend to help her through a rough time, Granny Withers orders a soft, cuddly bear named Suzie Snuffles to do just that. But when Emily opens her package, she finds a rather stiff and serious-looking bear named Stuffles B. Snippet instead. Slightly disappointed, Emily decides to keep Stuffles after she finds out that this bear— carrying a red diary and gold pen—has a very unique talent. She realizes her new friend can help her classmates and first-grade teacher, Miss Frey. The first graders soon discover they have a special friend in Stuffles B. Snippet, who is able to comfort the children with difficult problems.

Emily’s best friend is her serious-looking brown teddy bear, Stuffles B. Snippet. When Emily is diagnosed with cancer, Stuffles is with her every step of the way—from doctors’ appointments, medical tests, treatments, and even a hospital stay—helping her through some tough times. Along the way, they meet new friends who spread cheer throughout the hospital. These include two therapy dogs, Batdog Archie and Goldie, and the special people who care for cancer patients. Stuffles learns about CAT scans, biopsies, and chemotherapy. He writes notes in his red diary to bring smiles and laughter to the little girl. But why is this silly bear wearing a ridiculous long blond wig and a green gown? Why does he have some of his stuffing taken out? Find out in Stuffles B. Snippet Joins the Fight, a book that helps children dealing with cancer better understand the disease and its treatment.
