The image depicts a group of anthropomorphic teddy bears engrossed in their literary journey. Seated comfortably on cushions, these adorable creatures eagerly delve into the pages of Emerson's works while embracing the wisdom of "the Autocrat". The bears' childlike curiosity shines through as they immerse themselves in literature that transcends species boundaries. This enchanting artwork not only celebrates the joy of reading but also pays homage to Theodore Roosevelt, who was known for his love of nature and literature.
