The Gift

Author(s): Penny Matthews

Picture Books

A rather plain bear sits next to a gorgeous plush crocodile in the toyshop. As Christmas shopping becomes frantic, each one hopes to be chosen as a gift, and to find a home with a child to love him. But as hope dwindles, the little bear makes his own gift to the crocodile.
