You can find his little round eyes looking at you from shop windows, advertisements or even your own bed. Who is this cute bear that so many people adore? He goes by the name of Teddy.
Teddy bear came into the world in 1902. That year American President Theodore Roosevelt, nicknamed "Teddy," went on a bear-hunting trip in Mississippi. Soon afterward, a cartoon showing Roosevelt refusing to kill a baby bear was published in newspapers across America.

Thanks for the information my friend.I just learn a new insight for today.I could not imagine that the name teddy bear was derived from the American President Theodore Roosevelt.
