Synopsis
Corduroy has been on the department store shelf for a long time. Yet as soon as Lisa sees him, she knows that he's the bear she's always wanted. Her mother, though, thinks he's a little shopworn-he's even missing a button! Still, Corduroy knows that with a bit of work, he can tidy himself up and be just the bear for Lisa> And where better to start than with a quick search through the department store for a new button!

About the Author
Don Freeman nació el 11 de agosto de 1908 en San Diego, California; y falleció en febrero de 1978. Freeman se destacó como artista plástico, ilustrador de periódicos, dibujante, litógrafo, ilustrador de libros, autor e ilustrador de libros para niños. Don Freeman comenzó su vida en una situación difícil, ya que queda huérfano muy joven. Se graduó de la Escuela de los Principia de alta en St. Louis, Missouri. Según la leyenda, uno de los instructores de Don Freeman tomó nota de su talento y modalidades previstas para el joven artista para entrar en el ya famoso Art Students League de Nueva York.
Don Freeman fue introducido por primera vez a la literatura infantil cuando William Saroyan le solicitó ilustrar varios libros infantiles. Sin embargo, su mayor influencia provino de la artista Honoré Daumier. Freeman había estudiado muchas de las obras de Daumier y poseía una gran colección de libros sobre el artista. A lo largo de su carrera Don Freeman, fue autor e ilustrador de más de 20 libros para niños. Él es mejor conocido por su publicación "Corduroy". A pesar de muchas ideas provenían de sí mismo, su esposa, Lydia Freeman, contribuyó en gran medida a su éxito, al haber sido co-autora de dos libros con él, incluyendo"Chuggy and the Blue Caboose and Pet of the Met". Ella fue muy influyente en el trabajo de su marido, ya que él se basó en ella para inspirarse en sus obras."About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
