The teddies have managed to find a child. Life with Darling is far better than any they' ve known. But something' s not right-the promised bliss of Forever Sleep hasn' t come. And they are kept a secret from Darling' s mother. Then the inevitable happens: Mama discovers the teddies. The teddies sit in horror as they watch one of their own destroyed. The remaining trio barely escape, thrust back into a world that does not want them. Our heroes decide to return to where they were created. En route, and much to their surprise, they find a civilization of discarded teddies. The comfort of a town of teddies has its allure . . . but the need for answers weighs heavy on Buddy' s mind. And there' s something definitely off about these new bears. Will our heroes accept their strange rules? Or must they dig deep for one more adventure to finally learn why they were thrown away? The answer lies just up the stairs . . .
* This series continues to be disturbing and brilliant in equal measure. --Kirkus Reviews, Starred ReviewPraise for They Threw Us Away: "Truly captivating. " --The New York Times "A deliciously macabre fairy tale, full of snuggles. " --Holly Black, award-winning author of Doll Bones and co-creator of The Spiderwick Chronicles "Reminiscent of Watership Down. . . reflective children will revel in this thought-provoking world. " --Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review "By turns swashbuckling and reflective, touching and disturbing, this existential work of fantasy and horror considers what one is willing to sacrifice when utterly lost. " --Publishers Weekly "With a nod to Watership Down. . . [r]eaders with a taste for disturbing adventures and disquieting revelations will be well served. " --Booklist "Fans of Toy Story or The Velveteen Rabbit might be aghast, but readers who knew there was always something a little off about their playthings will appreciate this uniquely horrific take. " --The Bulletin of the Center for Children' s Books
