Much Loved, photographed by Mark Nixon, is a book that features stuffed animals that have been worn to bits by their owners.

Mostly teddy bears loved so fiercely that I would hand over my purse if I met them in a dark alley. There are also a few rabbit in there.

I wasn’t a stuffed animal kind of child. I kept no soft friend of fuzzy demeanor to whisper secrets to or cling to in adversity.
