"Once upon a time in the Kingdom of Kiddiwink there lived a young prince named Barnaby, he wasn't especially handsome or even very brave but the people of Kiddiwink loved him for Prince Barnaby had a kind heart...." Thus begins Kiddiwink Kingdom, a new juvenile fiction book by author Patricia Jackson who writes under the pen name of "Aunty Tish" This colorful picture book contains a charming collection of stories about the inhabitants of Kiddiwink Kingdom. Much in the same vein as the 1950's classic "The Lonely Dolll", Jackson's book utilizes photographs of posed teddy bears to accent the stories. Perhaps the most poignant story is about the day the circus comes to town and the "World's Strongest Bear" discovers that there are bear cubs who do not have a safe place to play while their parents are at work. Thus all the caring inhabitants join in to build a care center for the Kingdom.
