NIMBUS AND HIS NUMBER PUZZLES

‘Do you think I am good at writing and sums, Papa?’
Sunday morning is always a time when I can sit quietly and write about the amazing Alphabetabears; and Sunday is always the time that Hiccup chooses to interrupt me writing such things.
However, the die is cast and I will persevere.
It did strike me that Hiccup is actually quite literate and even more than that, really very numerate (for a small teddy-bear at least). Actually it made me think a little about the teddy-bears upstairs and I did begin to wonder about how clever they really are.
Have you ever wondered that too?

Hiccup obviously has such thoughts and just because he is small it doesn’t mean he isn’t quite a clever little bear. I began to recall his meeting with Nimbus, whom he visits when he leaves Manuel’s Mini Motors.
Nimbus had set some number puzzles which he gave to Hiccup to try and it did surprise me to find that Hiccup was actually very good at identifying and picking our numbers.
Only when I put myself in the mind-set of Hiccup did it dawn on me just how clever the little chap is.

Perhaps I should not complain about him being here quite so often when he does have all the other teddy-bears to play with. Perhaps I have misjudged him a little.
