Having gotten myself hooked on the old vintage and abandoned cars which feature Jonty and our beautiful Labradoodle (Mocha), this will be one of the last few pieces in the bear themed series showcasing my little man.  I took him to our local library and showed him some books on bears.  He loved the photography in the books and sit very intently looking at all the pictures while I snapped away on my camera.
