Ted and his Patches by Carla Coley and Heidi Pannell

Ted and his Patches is a touching therapeutic picture book about a little bear’s journey from trauma and loss to hope and love. It is a special book that will resonate with the reality of the trauma and loss that many children have experienced.

Ted and his Patches helps children make sense of some of the facts and feelings linked to their early experiences. This book is a perfect tool for parents, carers, and professionals to use to connect with the child’s story, to help heal and repair and develop trust and safety. Suitable for ages 5-10.

‘Ted and His Patches brings to life a teddy bear that was made to be perfectly cuddled but who was instead mishandled and mistreated by careless owners. His journey of of loneliness and degradation is poignantly depicted in the words and images of the pages. However, the book also provides hope in that, with the right relationship of caring parents, Ted learns that his "patches", his wounded parts, are the source of compassion, growth and connection. Any child who has been through the painful experiences of foster care, abuse, neglect and loss will be able to identify with the furry creature of Ted. This story book will be useful to professionals and caregivers working with hurt children. It will allow children to identify both with the pain and the hopefulness of life and will sure to open up avenues of conversation and connection.’ Dafna Lender, International trainer and supervisor in both Theraplay and DDP.
