Benny, a Tale of a Christmas Toy / K. C. Scott / 126 pages / Winter Holiday Themed Book

Benjamin is a real estate broker in Rexton, Oregon.  Unfortunately, the real estate market is "in the toilet."  Even though he knows he shouldn't, he bought his 6 year old daughter, Annie, The Amazing Talking Bluebear Brother.  He paid $70.00 for the toy, money he should have saved for the lean months ahead.  When Annie opens Bluebear Brother on Christmas, she immediately names him Benny and is chagrined when his mouth does not move.  He is broken.   Ben tells his wife that he will exchange the  bear the next day.  Annie hears and her parent have to explain that Santa is not real.  Ben buys a second Bluebear Brother  and brings Benny back home.  He becomes Ben's confidant and Ben is convinced his guardian angel.
