Corduroy – Don freeman


Corduroy is classic that has been around for many years. The story is about a stuffed bear in a department store that is not in perfect condition. A little girl walks by him and falls in love with him immediately, but is denied the opportunity to take him home by her mother. Corduroy wants to be loved by someone so he searches and searches for a lost button on his overalls. In the end, the girl came back and bought him and brought him home. They both loved each other so much and she even gave him a new button.
This memorable story will touch children’s hearts. The innocent way this cute bear explores his world is matched by the adorable drawings. The story teaches children the all important life lessons of unconditional love and a true home. Corduroy also inspires imagination for the young reader because of the stuffed animal coming to life throughout the story. Apparently, the artwork of book is wonderful and the story is very touching.
