Big Teddy’s dream is to learn how to fly. Yellow Teddy prefers staying on the ground, meeting new friends, and finding adventure wherever it may be.
Big and Yellow are two well-loved teddy bears whose move to their new home involves a rainy day and a mud puddle. What they are about to learn is that their new girl, Avery, lives in a house with a backyard that sits right next to an abandoned farm. The bears can’t wait to explore it, but getting there won’t be easy. And it doesn’t look like they’ll get much help from Avery’s purple duck, Violet.
Their first obstacle is a Great Dane named Piper. The second is a block wall Avery’s father is building around their backyard. Together, Big and Yellow, with the help of a cocky crow named Diego, overcome each difficulty in their path. They finally arrive at the farmyard where they meet Pumpkin, a cantankerous old cat, and Charlie, a proud rooster, both of whom are waiting for the farmer to return. It is Gladys, a fearless mother skunk, and her eight kits, that bring all the animals together one night in the big red barn.
This is a story about finding new homes, making new friends, and discovering that things are not always as they seem.
As Yellow would say, “Change can turn out to be a good thing, don’t you think?”
