There was a small beautiful town. Everyone in the town liked Mrs Steiff. They all called her Aunt Margaret. She could laugh and play. She could read and sing. But she could not walk. Aunt Margaret wanted a job. What could she do? “I can sew，” she said. “I don’t have to walk to do that.”

Aunt Margaret cut some cloth. She sewed the pieces. Then she smiled. She had made a toy elephant. Children loved the toy very much. They shouted——“Make me one， Aunt Margaret.”“Please! Please!”“Make mine with pink spots.” Aunt Margaret smiled. “Don’t worry! You will all have toys.” She snipped and sewed， snipped and sewed.

Soon Aunt Margaret had a zoo. She made yellow chickens， squirrels， tigers and soft kittens.

Children in other towns soon wanted toy animals. Aunt Margaret started a toy shop. She made lots of animals to sell. Aunt Margaret worked very hard. Many people worked in her shop. Her animals were sold in many towns.

One day Aunt Margaret made a surprise. It was a fuzzy brown animal. It had black button eyes. Its arms and legs moved. Aunt Margaret called it Bear. Many people say this was the first Teddy Bear. It became the most loved animal of all in the world.

玩具創(chuàng)造者

從前有一個(gè)美麗的小鎮(zhèn)，鎮(zhèn)上每個(gè)人都喜歡斯太福太太。人們都叫她瑪格麗特大嬸，瑪格麗特大嬸特愛(ài)笑也喜歡玩。她能閱讀和唱歌，但她不能走路。

瑪格麗特大嬸要找一個(gè)工作，她能做什么呢？

她說(shuō)：“我能做縫紉，這工作不需要走路去做。”瑪格麗特大嬸剪了一些布。然后把這些布片縫起來(lái)，于是做了一個(gè)玩具大象，做完后，她欣慰地笑了。

孩子們非常喜愛(ài)這個(gè)玩具。他們大聲叫到：“瑪格麗特大嬸，請(qǐng)您給我做一個(gè)?！薄罢?qǐng)給我用粉紅色的布做一個(gè)?！?/p>

瑪格麗特大嬸笑著說(shuō)：“別急，你們每個(gè)人都會(huì)得到一個(gè)?！彼舭。p啊，縫啊，剪啊，忙個(gè)不停。

很快瑪格麗特?fù)碛辛艘粋€(gè)動(dòng)物園，在動(dòng)物園里有她做的黃色的小雞，松鼠，老虎和溫柔松軟的小貓。

不久其他鎮(zhèn)上的孩子們也希望得到這些玩具。瑪格麗特著手創(chuàng)辦一家玩具店。她制造了大量的動(dòng)物玩具去賣?，敻覃愄厍趭^地工作，還讓許多人在她的店里打工。她的動(dòng)物玩具在許多鎮(zhèn)子里都有銷售。

一天瑪格麗特非常驚奇地發(fā)現(xiàn)，有一個(gè)棕色絨毛的動(dòng)物，它有著黑色的紐扣的眼睛，它的手臂和腿都能移動(dòng)了?，敻覃愄卮髬鸾o它起名叫“熊”。許多人都說(shuō)這是第一個(gè)玩具泰迪熊。泰迪熊后來(lái)成為世界上最受歡迎的動(dòng)物。
