    What a wonderful uplifting story! Way to go, Bamse! I love that his name means "cuddly bear" - fits him perfectly, doesn't it? Thanks for posting this, it brightened my day!

    What a pity he didn't get to see the end of the war. I adore the image of him in his little sailor collar.....trotting through the streets...

    It is a lovely story, isn't it?

    On the right-hand side of this page there is a video from yesterday's unveiling ceremony. I rather like Bamse's statue, I must say.

    I tried to see the video but got a message that it's for UK members only.

    How disappointing! I will try to find a photo of the statue so that you can see it.
