Anzac Ted
Ek Books (Verlag)
978-1-922539-75-5 (ISBN)
Meet a bear who is more
extraordinary than most in this poignant story about the Anzac spirit,
re-issued as a gorgeous hardback to celebrate its 10th anniversary.
Anzac Ted is no ordinary bear. He’s got worn
patches, frayed threads, missing parts and more… but that’s because he’s got an
incredible story to tell. Long ago, Anzac Ted went to war alongside Grandpa
Jack. He kept the soldiers company and gave them courage, becoming a mascot who
reassured them that they would make it through.
While Anzac Ted never won a medal, and now doesn’t even attract a single
vote at classroom Show and Tell, if only everyone looked a little deeper:
‘They’d see a hero, plain as day,
Who sits upon my bed.
A hero, who saved me and you.
His name … is Anzac Ted.’
While several children’s picture books cover the world wars, none has
ever made the conflict so accessible to children by telling the story of a bear
who went to war. Told with love and sensitivity by an award-winning children’s
author, this is a book that will touch the hearts of children and adults alike.
Belinda Landsberry is an award-winning author and illustrator, as well as being a mother, grandmother, dog wrangler and cat whisperer. She has a Diploma of Teaching with a major in Fine Arts, a Diploma of Graphic Design, and has trained as a nurse, copywriter, primary school teacher and art director. Belinda’s passion for words and pictures was evident from a very young age; at just seven, she wrote and illustrated her first picture book, entitled How to Become a Nurse. This beloved relic delights both students and teachers alike during Belinda’s author–illustrator visits to schools for Book Week. Belinda’s best-selling debut children’s picture book, Anzac Ted, is published internationally and was short-listed for the 2016 Western Australian Young Reader’s Book Awards.
