About the authors
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.

After hearing a recommendation from a family member about this book, I thought I’d try it on my almost 2 year old before her 24 month doctor visit. We read it 2 days before her visit and it made a significant impact! We even brought it to her appointment and read it while we were waiting. She was so excited to get her heartbeat checked, her temperature taken, and to lie down on the bed. She was able to get through her appointment without freaking out and even handled a finger prick blood test without a budge or a tear! Now.. side note, she did end up crying when she got her vaccinations, but the big difference was she only cried after the shot and not before and through the whole process. Her apparent fear of her doctor’s visit was not an issue anymore and that was my main concern.
Some things I liked:
1. Includes usual parts of a routine doctor visit. (Waiting room, stethoscope check, weigh-in, measuring height, etc)
-This is so helpful because it’s relatable and helps your child anticipate their own appointment!
2. Overcoming shots
-This is gold right here. The main reason I bought this book was to show my daughter that shots are quick and she’ll be ok once she’s done.
3. Stickers
-great incentive for your child when they have a doctor’s appt!
She loves this book series and was so excited to see so many stickers and the word find activity. Berenstain Bear books never disappoint!
I gave it to her along with a doctor play set but it makes a great little gift alone, too. Especially for the price. The book arrived in mint condition. I’m so pleased.
