Local author Ronnie Henry posted this earlier on her page. I love it so have pinched it for here. Love A.A.Milne . Do bears feature in your book Kathryn Aalto?
"It is cold. So this: If I were a bear, And a big bear too, I shouldn't much care, if it froze or snew; I shouldn't much mind, If it snowed or frizz - I'd be all furlined With a coat like his! For I'd have fur boots and a brown fur wrap, And brown fur knickers and a big fur cap. I'd have a fur muffle-ruff to cover my jaws And brown fur mittens on my big brown paws. With a big brown furry-down up to my head, I'd sleep all the winter in a big fur bed". A A Milne
That sent me off exploring Milne on bears and I came across the poem in the picture on the photos section - his writing always makes me smile
