What do you want for your birthday, Prince Peter' ask the King and Queen, hoping for a sensible request- a silver sword maybe, a new throne, a golden carriage But no, Prince Peter wants a teddy bear and in exasperation they give in. Prince Peter isn't quite as pleased as he might be - it's made of solid gold, not warm and cuddly at all - at least, not at first. . . This is a book with a delightfully simple message which is conveyed with few words and a series of glowing illustrations in which there is always more than at first meets the eye.
