Rendition Concering Books Much Loved

Award-winning photographer Mark Nixon has created a trove of quirky and nostalgic portraits of teddy bears and other stuffed animals that have been lovingly abused after years of play. MuchLoved collects 60 of these images along with their accompanying background tales. An exhibit in the photographer’s studio led to a small sensation on the Internet when a few of the pictures circulated unofficially on scores of blogs and on many legitimate news sites. Viewers have been intrigued by the funny, bittersweet images and their ironic juxtaposition of childhood innocence and aged, loving wear and tear.  When you see these teddy bears and bunnies with missing noses and undone stuffing, you can’t help but think back to childhood and its earliest companions who asked for nothing and gave a lot back.

Praise for Much Loved:

“Much Loved is impossibly endearing in its entirety.” —Brain Pickings

Write-Up Containing Books Much Loved
This charming book is a quick but fun read. Each 2-page spread features a photograph of a "much loved" stuffed animal, usually a teddy bear, and comments from its owner or, in the case of young children, the child's parent. A number of the toys are quite old (at least several decades) and many of them are kind of "ratty-looking," as befitting toys which were cuddled, petted, sucked on, chewed, and/or dragged around for years. Anyone who has had such a toy, or wanted one, will probably enjoy this

Cute and quick, this would make a good coffee table book. Might make you hold your own stuffed animals a little tighter.

I love this book! It is filled with the most amazing and beloved stuffed creatures that have provided comfort throughout childhood and beyond. The oldest is 104 years old and was past from one generation to another. My own bear is now 48 years old. I knitted 'Pinky' (finally named by one of my children) a pair of pink pants & a cardigan when I was in my twenties. She lives in a drawer most of the time and is rediscovered at intervals. I may have to buy this book as I enjoyed it so much :)

Hard book to read as some of these toys, who are best friends, are seriously loved so much that there isn't much left. What I wouldn't give to find Jocko the Clown, who was with me through many a thumb sucking night and was even professionally photographed (with me and my thumb). At least I have Bear and might offer to let Nixon photo him. For those of you from NIU's North Neptune, he was the guy who was hung in effigy from the clock in the hall and lived to tell the story...and he never held a

i will never tire of books that show photos of much-loved stuffed animal companions. i have already read Chewed and Dirty Wow Wow and Other Love Stories: A Tribute to the Threadbare Companions of Childhood (and i still need to get my hands on Dirty Bow Wow). there is something so charming about these pictures, and reading the accompanying text about how long these faithful, damaged friends have been with their keepers is pretty heart-melting, even for me. i mean, don't get me wrong - some of



if you've ever had a stuffed animal you couldn't live without, or even if you didn't this book is absolutely amazing. if you have an old friend and this book will make you want to seek them out just to see how their doing(unless they're sitting next to you). this book had pitures of a wide range of childrens and adults well loved stuffed animals as well as their heartwarming stories. there were a few animals that had been very loved. one that caught my eye was a giraffe, i believe jeffy, was
