What is Baggy Brown and the royal baby about?

Baggy Brown begins life as Number One, a special teddy bear made to be presented to the royal baby of Thingland. But when plans change, he ends up waiting in a shop, where Alfie discovers him. Alfie gives the bear his new name, and soon the two become inseparable. Through adventures, play and plenty of wear and tear, Baggy Brown learns that a toy does not need to be perfect to be precious—it simply needs to be loved.
