Come and meet
Big Ted and
join Polly
and Peter as
they listen
to the
stories of
his amazing
adventures!
Elderly
teddies may not be all they
seem. Take Big Ted, for
instance! Who would have
thought this venerable old
gentleman was once the hero
of so many exciting
adventures? Who could guess,
as he sits quietly reading
his London newspaper, how he
once courageously chased off
the Sun Prince and saved the
realm of Snowtonia for the
Snow Queen, or outwitted the
fierce pirates to find King
Neptune’s seashell, or
carried out a dangerous
mission fearlessly braving
the witches to seek the
princess’s lost pet? And
have you ever wondered who
delivered all the Christmas
presents when Father
Christmas was too poorly to
drive the sleigh? Or who
lights up the moon at night?
Big Ted, now contentedly
spending his days rocking
gently in his rocking chair,
tells his tales to Polly and
Peter - and even takes them
on an adventure of their
own!
