Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for September 12, 2021

If he learns about hand puppets, he’ll really be having fun.

Ted can certainly learn some things from Teddy about developing attributes.

Oh lord yes he will be lonely…really lonely. Most of Ballard runs the other way when we see him.

At one time Teddy was satisfied with (just) drawing eyes “below” the knuckle on the side of his pointer fingers and hands … and coloring in lips below that and on the edge of his thumb … and then moving his thumbs to “talk”.

He has “advanced” to something more … more …?

I’d rather be Mr. Lonely.

Hello, knees!.

Must be a new trend on Ballard Street. Naked legs!

That is disturbing.

Knees need kneads?

Wait until he meets Mr. Beaver…

That’s kinda scary…

Pretty sure Teddy has other parts that keep him from being lonely as well.

Teddy can’t bare, his kneed for friends.

Know to Ballard Street residents as Knocked Knee Teddy, he thinks he is the Bee’s Knees.

Hey, don’t knock knees! Teddy kneeds them.
