Books with title Pudgy: The little black bear

This is the story of two unlikely friends who meet unexpectedly and become extraordinary friends. This book is written by me and illustrated by my daughter. Chloé Doten, my daughter, is only eleven years old but has had a passion for drawing since the age of one. We hope you will enjoy our labor of love in this sweet little rhyming book that begins with sadness and ends with joy.

This is a story of an adventurous little black bear. It was written in a manner, that the bear is not gender specific. Leaving the gender unidentified, in hopes to alleviate stereotypes, as well as give the reader a choice to identify the character as themselves. It was written with my favorite stuffed animal as the main character. A little black bear that I still have today.

Kosmo the Little Black Bear is a story for children, meant to teach them to think and observe. They will observe what happens when Kosmo's father and the antagonist square off. They will learn the possible outcomes of such an encounter. A word or two may be difficult for a child to understand. They have been deliberately placed in order to have the little ones go to an adult and ask for the meaning of the words. This is done to draw the family together. The adult may have to provide an example, thus helping to bring the family members together. Along with the story is a lesson in the spiritual that a child will be able to grasp. Kosmo offers more than just an action story about a bear's family. It offers positive life lessons that children will readily absorb.
