In 1916, at the height of the First World War, a Canadian teddy bear travelled all the way to France in a care package destined for Lieutenant Lawrence Browning Rogers - a gift from his ten-year-old daughter, Aileen. When Teddy returned from the front lines, more than a year later, he did so alone: Lieutenant Rogers, along with many other Canadian soldiers, died at the battle of Passchendaele. Today, Teddy resides in a glass display case at the Canadian War Museum - one of the most beloved exhibits in the building. In A Bear in War , Stephanie Innes (Lawrence’s great-granddaughter) and Harry Endrulat tell Teddy’s remarkable story. The tale is brought to life through Brian Deines’ poignant art, resulting in a powerful, moving piece of literature - a picture book destined to become a Canadian classic.
