The unbearable cuteness of being... a polar bear

Many young children like bears. This may be because of teddy bears. As far as I remember, my second-oldest fluffy toy was a brown teddy bear. (The oldest was a monkey that I now remember as rather threadbare.) But my particular thing about bears wasn't teddy-based. And it wasn't just about any bears: it was polar bears that fascinated me.

I wonder whether it is a new edition of the book. If it's similar to my old one, you'll get a poem starting: "The common cormorant (or shag)".

I hope you and the little one enjoy it... Lots of love to both of you too xx

(Btw, when Iza does become serious about killing me, I will need all the cuteness-camouflage I can get.)

I am now partially weirded out/intrigued by this. Having exchanged the opening lines of TCC(OS) with you the other day, a phrase I remember my father saying to me (I say 'saying' when I really mean delivering; I am sure he said it out loud but have no idea if it was impromptu or from a book) when I was young, the thought occurs that the same tome of bears may also have existed in my youth. However I can access no other linked recollections. I think I am going to insist on seeing your copy when next I visit to see if its pages unlock further memories.
