World's Most Famous Toy Maker

Margarete Steiff, "The World's Most Famous Toy Maker," will be the subject of a presentation celebrating National Women's History Month at 7 p.m. Wednesday, March 30, at the Fremont Public Library, 1170 N. Midlothian Road, Mundelein. For nearly 140 years, children and adults worldwide have loved Germany's Steiff toys, most notably the Teddy bear.
