SHERMAN, Conn. - EntSun -- Emerald Lake Books proudly announces the release of Benjamin Symington Theodore Bear, a heartwarming illustrated children's book by Andrea O'Connor. Known for her celebrated Gaby Quinn Mystery Series set in the fictitious town of Woodson Falls, Connecticut, O'Connor takes a nostalgic turn with her latest work, capturing the innocence and joy of childhood play and friendship.
