Читать книгу When We Were Kittens - David Greagg - Страница 110

Woman has a new brown teddy bear with very soft fur. She sits in Valentine's paws on her bed and she looks very sweet. (Valentine is the White Teddy; unlike CJ, who is brown and is Man's teddy as well as ours.) Belladonna informed us that the new teddy is called Ursa Minor.

There is something odd about Ursa Minor though. I swear she moves around the bed by herself, because when I came in to remind Man that it was time for our walk there was Ursa Minor with Valentine. Next morning Valentine was still there, up by Woman's pillow, but Ursa Minor was down at the end of the bed.

Do you think Ursa Minor is alive? I asked my sister. She looked away and pretended she hadn't heard me. No, really, do you think so?

Why do you think that? Shadow asked.

I told her that Ursa Minor had somehow moved down the bed during the night.

My sister didn't answer so I just had to wonder to myself. We all love our teddy bears, but I found it a little disturbing that they might come alive at night.
