		This independence was enhanced by the fact that few great nobles had followed Albert the Bear in his work of conquest, and that consequently there were few large lordships with their crowd of dependents.

	Smokey Bear: A 55 Year Career
		Albert Staehle, noted illustrator of animals, worked with this description to paint the forest fire prevention bear.
		His art appeared in the 1945 campaign, and the advertising symbol was given the name "Smokey Bear." The bear was named "Smokey" after "Smokey" Joe Martin, who was Assistant Chief of the New York City Fire Department from 1919 to 1930.
		Because this bear survived a terrible forest fire and won the love and imagination of the American public, many people mistakenly believe the cub was the original Smokey Bear, but in reality he did not come along until the advertising symbol was almost six years old.

	Powell's Books - Baby Bear's Chairs by Jane/sweet Yolen
		Baby Bear is the littlest bear in his family, and sometimes that's not so easy.
		No high chairs 'with straps so/ tiny bears don't fall' for those of his brother's ilk: 'middling bears' get to sit in 'middling chairs,' big enough to serve as pretend pirate ships (and if those middling bears take a tumble from the mast, they get right up again and 'never cry').
		Her mixed-media illustrations exude a sunny open-heartedness; the slightly naf style opts for emotional authenticity over realism, but Sweet also includes plenty of domestic details to create a bear household that is both a loving one and also a great setting for a play date.
