Bartie Bristle and Other Stories: Tales from the Teddy Bear Ladies

By Julie Tatchell, Amanda Middleditch

Illustrated by Elke Boschinger

Step into the magical world of Bartie Bristle and friends in this stunning treasury written by the Teddy Bear Ladies, Julie Tatchell and Amanda Middleditch, best known as stars of the BBC's The Repair Shop.

Set in a village in the heart of the Old Woods, the magical world of the teddy bear shop and the heart-warming stories of Bartie and his teddy bear friends will captivate children and parents alike. Julie Tatchell and Amanda Middleditch are best known as "the Teddy Bear Ladies" on the much-loved BBC show The Repair Shop. But before they joined the repair team in the BBC barn they ran a business restoring soft toys from their shop in a beautiful little village. The shop’s logo featured Julie’s sketch of an adorable bear, which Amanda made into a teddy known as Bartie Bristle. Julie and Amanda began writing short stories all about Bartie Bristle and the other favourite toys for the children that came to their shop, with Julie reimagined as Mrs T and Amanda as Rose.

Reviews

'I fell in love with the whole entire book, with delightful teddy bear stories and amazing illustrations. I just know all children, as well as adults are going to love all these wonderful stories.' BookRead2Day

'Every story has its own distinct charm that should encourage readers to want to hear all of them, but they also stand alone as well-crafted little stories with just the right amount of plot and character development...I recommend this engagingly illustrated book.' The Letterpress Project
