Anzac Ted is no ordinary bear. He’s got worn patches, frayed threads, missing parts and more… but that’s because he’s got an incredible story to tell. Long ago, Anzac Ted went to war alongside Grandpa Jack. He kept the soldiers company and gave them courage, becoming a mascot who reassured them that they would make it through.       While Anzac Ted never won a medal, and now doesn’t even attract a single vote at classroom Show and Tell, if only everyone looked a little deeper:     ‘They’d see a hero, plain as day,       Who sits upon my bed.       A hero, who saved me and you.       His name … is Anzac Ted.’        While several children’s picture books cover the world wars, none has   ever made the conflict so accessible to children by telling the story of a bear who went to war. Told with love and sensitivity by an award-winning children’s author, this is a book that will touch the hearts of children and adults alike.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50558701797649,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":50558702092561,"sku":"NGR9781922539755","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52618051846417,"sku":"NLS9781922539755","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52778739925265,"sku":"NIN9781922539755","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53154724544785,"sku":"GOR014783965","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53625359696145,"sku":"GOR014986495","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53626121584913,"sku":"GOR014986950","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1922539759.jpg?v=1780566467"},{"product_id":"anzac-ted-book-belinda-landsberry-9781921966569","title":"Anzac Ted","description":"Anzac Ted is the powerful, poignant story of a little boy's teddy bear that was passed down to him from his grandfather.

'But it wasn't always this way, ' Tock sadly reflects, 'Once I was loved.' We rewind the clock to 1939 when a girl named Sam receives a toy rabbit for her 5th birthday. From that moment, Sam and Tock are inseparable. They're together when Sam hugs her father goodbye as he marches off to war. They're together when they visit polio patients at the hospital, but sadly part when Sam gives Tock to Flynn, a gravely ill boy in an iron lung. Flynn slowly recovers, but Tock is dropped from his hospital window as he watches the celebrations marking the end of the war. Tock is found by Max, and together they are swept up in the newest music craze of the 1950s: rock 'n' roll. Max grows up and hands his beloved toy rabbit on to his son, Toby, and in 1969, Toby and Tock watch the first Moon landing. In 1974, Tock is found in a park by Pip, a 'flower child' from the Hippie movement. And so Tock's adventures continue through to the present day, when an old lady is sorting toys donated to charity. Her name badge reads 'Sam' -- after nearly 90 years, Sam is finally reunited with her beloved Tock. A celebration of the timeless nature of love and set against the backdrop of iconic moments in 20th-century history, this heart-warming picture book will resonate with anyone who has ever cherished a childhood toy.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51334286180625,"sku":"CIN1925820025VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53134599749905,"sku":"NLS9781925820027","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1925820025.jpg?v=1780567632"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/collections\/author-books-by-belinda-landsberry.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
