One of my favorite books as a child was Corduroy.
Corduroy, written by Don Freeman, is a darling story about love and friendship.
It is about a teddy bear named Corduroy with a missing button who lives in a department store.
The little girl sews a button on him and the two discover a friendship with each other.
