Description
From #1 New York Times bestelling author, Katherine Applegate, here is a stunning tale of kindness and second chances.
For fans of Odder, Wishtree, Willodeen, and The One and Only Ivan.
Thimble-born from tip to toe, Pocket Bear remembers every moment of his becoming: the glimmering needle, the silken thread, the tender hands as each careful stitch brought him closer to himself. Born during the throes of WWI, he was designed to fit into the pocket of a soldier’s jacket, eyes sewn a bit higher than normal so that he always gazed upward. That way, glancing at his pocket, a soldier would see an endearing token of love from someone back home, and, hopefully, a good luck charm.
Now, over a century later, Pocket serves as unofficial mayor of Second Chances Home for the Tossed and Treasured, where stuffed toy animals are refurbished and given a fresh opportunity to be loved. He and his best feline friend Zephyrina, known far and wide as “The Cat Burglar,” have seen it all, and then some.
An unforgettable tale of bravery, loyalty, and kindness, Pocket reminds us all that love comes in many forms (sometimes filled with fluff), and that second chances are always possible.

We loved the selection of lighted Christmas greens, books, games, puzzles, decor, great gifts for men, and drinks at this beautiful store in Potosi, Wisconsin. It is a great girls’ trip destination. Lunch afterwards at the Potosi Brewery is excellent.
Great spot to work remote, connect with teammates, buy gifts, and hang out with friends. Lots of really comfortable seating, wifi, open spaces and private spaces for conference calls. Definitely on the list to stop back in when we're in the area!
This place was awesome! So much stuff and super friendly people. Went in on a sleepy Sunday afternoon and the place was super cool as someone not from the area. Liked it better than some shops that we have been to in big cities and other small towns
