NATIONAL BESTSELLER - The treasured childhood classic that tells the heartwarming story of a little bear and a little girl finding the friend they have always wanted in each other.

Corduroy lives in the toy department of a big store. Day after day he waits with all the other animals and dolls for somebody to come along and take him home. Yet as soon as Lisa sees him, she knows that he's the bear for her. Her mother, though, thinks he's a little shopworn--he's even missing a button! Still, Corduroy knows that with a bit of work he can tidy himself up and be just the bear for Lisa.

Recognizable by his namesake green corduroy overalls, Corduroy and his misadventures in the search for his button have entertained and endeared generations of readers. The timeless quality of Corduroy's story continues to appeal to children today as it has for decades, ensuring his place in everyone's heart for years to come.
