Stan Berenstain

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.
Stan and Jan Berenstain were already successful cartoonists for magazines and adult humor books when they began writing children's books. The first story starring the bear family, The Big Honey Hunt, appeared in 1962. Since then, more than 370 Berenstain Bears books have been published, and more than 300 million copies have been sold. What began as an idea sparked by their young sons' love of reading has become over the years arguably the best-selling children's book series ever.
Since their inception, the Berenstain Bears stories have expanded to include picture books, beginning readers, and chapter books--even a hit TV show on PBS. Writing and illustrating the books has become a Berenstain family affair. Mike joined with his parents as a creative team in the late 1980s. The Bear family has expanded over the years as well. Sister Bear arrived in 1974, and baby Honey joined the family in 2000.
Though Stan died in 2005 and Jan in 2012, Mike continues to create the delightful Bear adventures from his studio in Pennsylvania.

I am so happy!

Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2019

My 5 year old grandson read this book by himself. He has been reading with some help, but this one he just sat down and read it on his own.

It is about all the bears (I think he counted 7 in the bed) Leaving the house through the window in the night. Through the window down the tree. Around the lake, through the rocks!

Just the kind of book he needed to give him confidence to read by himself. He wants to read all the time now. He can't wait to get to school tomorrow to tell his teacher!

Fake book

Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2015

Verified Purchase

This book has to be fake. If it is produced by the same publishers then the production quality has faltered. The paper and image quality appears to be a photocopied version of the original. I purchased a second-hand version from eBay that dates back to the 80s and not only were the colours more rich and vibrant, the paper was thicker and more durable, and the book had an overall feel of quality to it that made it enjoyable to read. The cover on this Amazon copy was also different to the more original version.

I will not buy children's books again from Amazon. Very disappointed.

A great first book to read; also enjoyable for older kids

Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2011

Verified Purchase

The storyline to this book is incredibly awesome. The story is divided into several short phrases. This helps keep toddlers from becoming bored as you read to them. The pictures and story are very engaging -- not only for toddlers, but also for older children and even parents. And not just the first time you read it, but even after having read it dozens of times.

Since each page consists of 1 to 3 short phrases, which each have about 3 words, this short book is the perfect first book for young children to begin reading on their own. It will also help all kids learn correct use of prepositions -- like in, at, out, to, under, over, between, and through. This book and the Dr. Seuss classic, Go Dogs, Go!, are my two most highly recommended books that all toddlers should have read to them, and later try to read by themselves.

There are several similar books with a title like Bears in the Night by the Berenstains. This edition is my personal favorite. I'm surprised that Amazon does not have a photo for the cover. With the 4 for 3 pricing, and low price to begin with, it's well worth the investment.

One of the best-loved books of all time

Reviewed in the United States on April 13, 2001

Verified Purchase

Every person has a favorite. Every author has a one that sells better than the rest. But "Bears in the Night" does something even more special - it is a book that people *love* unlike any other. Readers of all ages are drawn to its simple text; millions can recite them almost word for word... "down the tree ... over the bridge ..." Combined with brilliant illustrations so distinctive of the early days of the Berenstain Bears, a beautiful marriage of words and pictures becomes a work of art. "Bears in the Night" is a book for bedtime, story time, any time. It is a book for Halloween, a book for camp. It is a book for all places and all people and all times. Call me sentimental, but a hundred years from now, "Bears in the Night" will remain. It may not sell as many copies as "The Cat in the Hat" or teach a lesson like "The Berenstain Bears and the Messy Room," but it will always have worn corners... it will always cause a child's jaw to drop or eyes to widen... it will always hold a place in people's hearts... and as a result, Spook Hill and the safety of that tree house deep in Bear Country will be more than places on paper, but dreams and fantasies and real living places inside the minds and hearts of every person who reads this book.

A wonderful Berenstain classic

Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2014

Verified Purchase

The Berenstain Bears night time adventure. The small bears hear a strange noise in the night and go out their window to find out what made the noise. Out the window, down the tree, under the bridge, over the hedge, well you get the picture. A wonderful Berenstain classic. Just a few words, along with wonderfully detailed illustrations. t is enjoyable for toddlers and great for first time readers too. We have a two year old who loves the easy to follow story and the beautiful pictures. His first introduction to the Berenstain Bears was the book "Inside, Outside, Upside Down!", which he loved, so we bought this one and were not disappointed. It is now one of our favorites, and it is so innocent and cute we recommend it for all families with small children.

It's a classic

Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2021

Verified Purchase

This is a classic that everyone in the family knows by heart. It's a cute story with nice illustrations that non readers and new readers equally enjoy. The length of the book is just right to keep everyone's attention and make reading fun. Another favorite is the Spooky Old Tree.

I have no idea where these good reviews come from. There are only a few words on many pages AND pages repeat the same thing as the previous page. I don’t get what’s so great about this book.

Still one of the best

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 15, 2018

Verified Purchase

This was my favourite story as a child in the late 1970s. Now, here it is, as perfect as it was then. For all the science of story writing, the old ones are still the best. Its simplicity, suspense and repetitive nature make it a favourite for young children.

One of my favourites for bedtime

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 28, 2012

Verified Purchase

OK so Im 37 years old! It was a favourite of mine from childhood. One of the reasons I would run and playfully jump onto the bed so my feet weren't grabbed by the unknown beasts hiding beneath! It's a quick read and good fun to see who can remember the order of events backwards so that after their adventure the bears can jump "back in bed" at the end of the story.
