Teddy and the Blue Butterfly is a story of love, hope and wishes. A story of a magical butterfly, and a teddy bear. A story of a young girl's longing to help another. A story of a miracle for someone she cares. Poor Teddy is scruffy, unloved and sightless, until a special, loving girl called Jessie adopts him for her own. This rhyming tale is easy to read with an enchanting ending that is emotional and satisfying for both adults and children. Beautifully illustrated, Teddy and the Blue Butterfly will have you believing that miracles really can come true.
