Martin and Ferdinand: A Memoir

Book Description HTML

A teddy bear tells his human owner's story. This is not a children's story, though. It is about one human being's struggle with being adopted, and the resulting trauma; emigrating from England to Australia; joining a religious order and leaving; questioning his religious beliefs; the first painful experience of heartbreak; difficult years as a public (civil) servant; being an unashamed "Doctor Who" fan; a struggle with severe anxiety and depression; and finally, love and marriage, and moving towards a more positive attitude to life and being made stronger by what he went through. This is one human's unique story, told in a unique way.
