Here's my old pal, Smokey the Bear, who's going on about 42 years old now . . . I got him when I was just about 4 years old and as you can see, he's been through a lot! Dog bites, cat scratches, sisters, tugs-of-war. If you look closely, you can see the scars of many successful surgeries. He's just about out of bean-bag-fillingish stuff, but as you can see, still holds a prominent place in my life among the books in my studio.
I just noticed that in the first photo, above his right paw, he's trying to point out one of his favorite titles -- Old Bear by Kevin Henkes.
