Teddy is thrilled to receive the best gift of all … a new puppy and best friend, Lala. Join Teddy and Lala on the first of their many adventures! A story about connection.
Author: Gabriella Brennan, the mother of Teddy, drew inspiration from the immediate bond she saw when Lala came into Teddy’s life – a birthday gift that has seen years of friendship and love blossom. In real life, this connection has been defined by special experiences shared and many lessons learned. Gabriella has incorporated these lessons into defining themes within each book. As you turn the pastel-filled pages, illustrated by Teddy herself as well as Andrew McIntosh, you feel the energy created by the secret language Teddy and Lala share. This series is set at their beachside home on the magical island of Bali. Teddy & Lala: A Birthday Surprise was written in both English and Indonesian to leave a lasting legacy of this special time and to also pay homage to Teddy’s Indonesian heritage. Illustrator: Andrew McIntosh is a part time digital illustrator from Melbourne, Australia. Ever since Andrew can remember, he has had a pencil and paper in his hand. He started his artistic career in the video games industry focusing on pixel art, 3D modelling and UI design. In his spare time, Andrew paints whimsical characters and scenes which are greatly inspired by nature. Since 2015, Andrew has pursued his aspiration to illustrate children’s books and hopes to write one of his own in the future.
* A heart-warming tale about the connection between a young girl and her new puppy. * Inspired by the real life experiences of Teddy, the author’s daughter. * The story is translated into Indonesian on each page which can be helpful to children with an Indonesian background as well as readers who are new to either Indonesian or English. * Key themes include love and friendship. * Colourful and bright collaborative illustrations by Teddy Hicks and Andrew McIntosh
