Beanie Babies A-Z Quiz Series - Final Chapter 3

Answer: Uncle Sam

Although these are all United States exclusives, my favorite is that of Uncle Sam. There are three Uncle Sam bears. My favorite is the one with blue feet with stars, is light brown, and has a white nose. The dark brown Uncle Sam bear has red and white striped feet and a red nose, and the white Uncle Sam bear has red feet with stars on them and a blue nose. They all sport different poems.

Light brown Uncle Sam:
"Each year on the fourth of July
As fireworks light up the sky
With all my friends and family
We'll celebrate that we are free!"

Dark brown Uncle Sam:
"Each year on the fourth of July
As fireworks light up the sky
With my hand on my heart I'll stand
I'm proud to live in this great land!"

White Uncle Sam:
"Each year on the fourth of July
As fireworks light up the sky
To show our country's truly great
Just take my hand; let's celebrate!"

Answer: Velvet

Velvet is a black panther. Interestingly, black panthers are actually leopards, and if you get close enough, you can see spots on their fur, very dark gray spots. They are incredibly hard to see from a distance, so it is often thought that these creatures are all black, like the Beanie Baby.

"Velvet loves to sleep in the trees
Lulled to dreams by the buzz of bees
She snoozes all day and plays all night
Running and jumping in the moonlight!"

Answer: Whisper

Whisper is a fawn, which is a baby deer. A female deer is known as a doe, and the male is known as a buck. Baby deer, or fawns, have white dots on their back, which disappear as they age. They are there so when they lie on the forest ground, it looks like they are dirt with sun spots that are shining through the trees, so they aren't detected as easily by predators, like grizzly bears.

"She's very shy as you can see
When she hides behind a tree
With big brown eyes and soft to touch
This little fawn will love you so much!"

Answer: Yapper

Yapper is a Shih Tzu, so she has very long and soft hair. It gets tangled quite easily, though. Yapper has a red bow in her hair.

"I love riding in the car
As long as we don't go too far
So take me on a little trip
And I'll let out a playful "YIP!""

Answer: Zip

Zip is a black cat with grayish brown eyes and white pays and feet. Older versions have a white face and belly.

"Keep Zip by your side all the day through
Zip is good luck, you'll see it's true
When you have something you need to do
Zip will always believe in you!"

Answer: Bandito

Bandito is a gray, soft, and fuzzy raccoon. He has a black "mask" and black and gray striped tail.

"You might wonder enough to ask
Just why it is I wear a mask
An outlaw's life I can't deny
But I'm really just kinda shy!"

Answer: Cutesy

Cutesy the Beanie Baby is a brownish tannish barfish green color mixed Cairn terrier. He is very soft, unless he is like mine, and is 4 years old, and very matted!

"People try to take care of me
Because I am so small, you see
But I won't always be a pup
Boy, I can't wait 'til I grow up!"

Answer: Pugsly

Pugsly is a pug dog, hence his name. He is a tannish color, with a black face and ears. He is extremely wrinkly!

"Pugsly is picky about what he will wear
Never a spot, a stain or a tear
Image is something of which he'll gloat
Until he noticed his wrinkled coat!"

Answer: Reese

Reese is a fuzzy and curly guinea pig. Often mistaken for a hamster, a guinea pig is a bit larger, and lacks a tail.

"You won't find me in a zoo
I'll never scratch or bark at you
I'm better than a dog or cat
A guinea pig is where it's at!"

Answer: Twitch

Twitch is a guinea pig, much like Reese, but instead of being curly, he is just silky and soft.

"As I scurry in my cage
The wheel I have is all the rage
Take me out so we can snuggle
I promise you that I won't struggle!"
