Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs…
Nope Not here

I searched everywhere for my bear.

But alas, my bear was lost.

Yes. LOST!
![Page 7: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
My cute, cuddly teddy bear, my dearest companion, my best friend, was lost.
![Page 8: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
I found my bracelet, but not my teddy bear.
![Page 9: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
I found my harmonica, but not my teddy bear.
![Page 10: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
My Mommy said, “Its ok, big girls don’t need teddy bears”.
![Page 11: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
My Daddy said “Don’t cry, teddy bears are only for babies”.
![Page 12: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
But, but that’s not true. Everyone needs a bear.
![Page 13: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
I just know it.
![Page 14: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Big or small, plush & soft, brown or black, a cute and cuddly teddy bear is what everyone needs.
![Page 15: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
I walked with hope to my friend Claire’s house. I knew she would agree with me about my need of my dear lost bear.
![Page 16: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
But when I got there, I was surprised to hear her praise her new Barbie doll to heights of glory in comparison to any stuffed toys.
![Page 17: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
But, but that’s not true. Everyone needs a bear.
![Page 18: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
I just know it.
![Page 19: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
I didn’t even mention the sad story of my lost teddy bear and walked out.
![Page 20: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
No one was searching for my bear, no one was agreeing with me about how important it was for me, I felt lost, not just my bear.
![Page 21: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
I decided I could walk to my grandma’s house, she always knew how to cheer me up. The thought made me happy. I skipped and ran and went to grandma’s house.
![Page 22: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
To my grandma, I was like a teddy bear by itself.

She hugged me and kissed me when she saw me. I was in high spirits already. I almost forgot I lost my teddy bear.
![Page 24: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Then I told her the story of my lost bear. She told me that if I answer her one question she would give me a surprise.
![Page 25: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
I thought curiously, a surprise? That sounded exciting!
![Page 26: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
She asked” Why does everyone need a bear?”
![Page 27: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
I knew the answer to this question.
![Page 28: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
This was what I was trying to tell everybody but no one had heard me earlier. I recited out the answer with enthusiasm,
![Page 29: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
“Teddy bears are good for warm hugs when you are feeling blue! When you are lonely and need a hug your bear will comfort you.
![Page 30: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Your bear is your best friend, and always there for you. It’s good for play time, dress up and picnics too!
![Page 31: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
You can hug it, squeeze it or make it do tricks.
TA-DAH!

Love it and take care of it like a brother or sister. It’s family too!
![Page 33: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Remember that your teddy bear loves you too! That is why everyone needs
a bear.”

She smiled and said,” oh, how true. Everyone needs a teddy bear, you are my teddy bear and I have found yours”
![Page 35: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
She pulled out her surprise from behind her back. There was my cute, cuddly teddy bear, my dearest companion, my best friend!
![Page 36: Everyone needs a bear! By Sahar Rashed. Under the bed, in the playroom, under the chairs… Nope Not here](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6adf/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
I will always love my bear, just like my grandma will always love me, forever and ever, and ever…….
