Once upon a time, a Dutch family settled in America. One of their great
grandsons became the President of the United States of America. His name was
Theodore (Teddy) Roosevelt.
One day, when he was hunting, he came across a baby bear. When the dogs
surrounded it and started barking, the bear was frightened. It knew that it
couldn’t run away. Roosevelt was sorry for the bear and allowed it to escape.
But those who saw this began to laugh. They could not understand why he
allowed it to run away, when he could have shot it so easily.
The Americans were proud of their President and decided to honour him. Toy
shops owners who heard the story of President ‘Teddy Roosevelt’ and the little
bear called their toy bears ‘teddy bears’. Perhaps you have a teddy bear of your
own. You should never forget the great man who gave it its name.
