  • Steiff Teddy Bear Catalog #: 1978.67.8 Donor: Marcia Newitt Estate
    Donation of the Month Object: Steiff Teddy Bear Catalog #: 1978.67.8 Donor: Marcia Newitt Estate Arctophily — the love of teddy bears — began in November 1902 when President Theodore Roosevelt traveled to Mississippi to help settle a border dispute with Louisiana. While there his hosts took him bear hunting. After three days of roughing it with no game in sight, the guides used dogs to track and injure an old she-bear. Tying the ailing animal to a tree, they summoned the president. But Roosevelt decided that it would be unsportsmanlike to kill the captive bear; instead he ordered it be put down to end its suffering. And that was how the legend of Teddy’s bear was born. When Washington Post political cartoonist Clifford Berryman heard the story, he sketched a cartoon titled “Drawing the Line in Mississippi,” a phrase which played up both the border dispute as well as Roosevelt’s refusal to shoot a captive bear. In the cartoon a man holds a rope tied around the throat of an adult bear while TR stands with his rifle, his back turned against the sad scene and his hand held out as if to stop what was happening. Berryman’s cartoon immediately captured the public’s attention. In an effort to capitalize on its popularity and further its already-powerful message, his subsequent renderings depicted a cute bear cub rather than an old black bear. It is the image of this baby bear that is most often recalled when folks discuss the history of teddy bears. When Russian immigrants Morris and Rose Michtom saw the cartoon, they were inspired to put a stuffed bear that Rose had made in the window of their of Brooklyn stationary and novelty store.

  • Have a Bearable Summer:'86 Summer Reading Program Planning Manual
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 286 147 CS 008 676 AUTHOR Jackson, Mary TITLE Have a Bearable Summer: '86 Summer Reading Program Planning Manual. INSTITUTION Nebraska Library Commission, Lincoln. PUB DATE Sep 85 NOTE 74p.; For the Activity Guide for this program, see CS 008 675. PUB TYPE Guides - Non-Classroom Use (055) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC03 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Activity Units; Elementary Secondary Education; Library Materials; Library Science; Program Development; Reading Programs; Recreational Activities; Recreational Reading; School Libraries; *Summer Programs IDENTIFIERS *Bears ABSTRACT Because studies have found that children canlose a year in their reading skills and motivation during summers, this planning guide suggests ways for librarians to interest children in a summer reading program by appealing to their fascination with bears and teddy bears. The guide is organized chronologically, beginning with a timetable, followed by suggestions for planning the summer program eight months ahead of time. The guide also provides space to record ideas about bears and to organize the program's goals and the library's bear resources. Forms are provided to facilitate an .inventory of the library's supplies. The guide includes large planning calendars and bibliographies of in-print and out-of-print bear books that the library may already have or can order (divided by age group and type of book). There is also a sample annotated bear bibliography aimed at children. The guide next offers order forms for companies that supply bear craft materials, and the final section of the guide consists of activity planning forms for many types of bear-related activities.

  • The Eden of Dreams and the Nonsense Land 2
    1 The Eden of Dreams and the Nonsense Land 2 The Eden of Dreams and the Nonsense Land. Characteristics of the British Golden Age Children’s Fiction in the Finnish Children’s Fantasy Literature of the 1950s. Mirva Saukkola 3 Foreword This dissertation tells about the journey fantasy literature made from Victorian Britain to a Finland, profoundly changed by the Second World War. It is loosely based on part of the licentiate work I completed almost five years ago. Much has since changed. When I started, I was simply fascinated by the enchanted worlds I was able to visit by reading fantasy literature. Later on, I was impressed by how children's literature is linked in so many ways to the society in which it is created. During the years spent writing this thesis, I found texts which I would have otherwise never come across, as well as being able to return to the stories I had greatly enjoyed as a very young reader. In many ways, this process was an adventure during which I found I was not only a researcher of literature, but also I remembered the experiences I went through as a child reader. I hope my thesis will raise the interest in children's literature and help grown- ups, in addition to children, to enjoy it. In this process - or my literary adventure - I had many guides and helpers, whom I wish to thank warmly. The supervisor of my thesis, Professor H. K. Riikonen has guided me during the entire process. I wish to address my most grateful thanks to him for his valuable advice.
