One day Michael Bond is doing the shopping in London. He goes into a toy shop, in Oxford Street. He sees a small bear on a shelf . The bear is alone because it is the last one. He buys it for his wife’s birthday. He gives his present to his wife who thinks the bear is really cute. And suddenly, Michael decides to turn the bear into a hero.
