Teddy One-Eye has had a rough-and-tumble life. He has been dragged around, chewed on, left outside at night and has lost an eye, but his many patches show how much he is loved. In his own words, the bear recalls life with the boy who owned him, from a remote railway settlement to the city, giving a glimpse of a New Zealand childhood from long ago.
