Where's My Teddy?

"Some people write children's books for their own children," says Jez Alborough. "But I don't have any children. I write for the child I was." And it's clear that he remembers the experience well. His rhythmic writing makes his books a joy to read aloud, while his bold, colourful style is fun and appealing and enormously popular with children. His hilarious picture book Where's My Teddy? together with its sequels It's the Bear! and My Friend Bear, have sold more than a million copies. Jez Alborough and his wife live in Richmond, Surrey.
