Lorene Kay and Clinton
are in charge of the library which houses many of The 100Greatest
Books Ever Written published by The Easton Press. They are
true friends for each other since their days at bear-in-mind
with Fran Lewis in W. Concord, Mass. Both were adopted from the home of Clenna M.
Shepherd, a very experienced custom bear creator. Lorene
is 33 inches tall and fully jointed. She is an aggressive, talkative, and energetic
bear. Her lucky number is 47. Clinton is the same
size and his lucky number is two. He is calm, understanding, and a very good
listener.
