How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

2.0 out of 5 starsBerenstain Bear books are sadly not what they used to be
Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2018
My kids loved the Berenstain Bear books growing up so I wanted to buy some for my grandchildren. I was not pleased to be reading a bible verse in a child’s book. Thank goodness I saved all my old books!! These new ones may get accidentally lost!!! Or a page ripped out!

2.0 out of 5 stars Christian propaganda :/
Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2020
Verified Purchase
My 2.5 year old loves a couple of the B. Bear books I had lying around from my own childhood, so I figured this boxed set would round out our collection of bedtime stories nicely.
I guess I should’ve read the reviews, because most of the books are pretty heavy on the God/Bible references. If you’re into that kinda thing, you’ll love them.

Stricktly Christian oriented lessons. A real bummer. We have several of the books that are moral and great but these are all proselytizing.

Overtly religious, quoting the new testament. I was not expecting that from a Berenstain Bear Book.

2.0 out of 5 stars The Berenstain Bears Are Getting to Preachy
Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2014

Since when did they start quoting the Bible? I was disappointed that the story did not focus enough on how children should be kind to others. While a Brother had been kind, the message was lost on a preschooler.

2.0 out of 5 stars Religious theme not disclosed
Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2014
Verified Purchase
My 4-year-old loves the Berenstain Bears books and we have many of them that we cycle through on a regular basis. I was disappointed to receive this one and discover that it has a religious theme and even includes bible quotations. There was nothing in the Amazon description to suggest that the tone of this book is that different from the others, and as my family is not Christian, I feel uncomfortable reading it to my children.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not Classics - VERY religious.
Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2020
I made a mistake and bought these because it said it was the "Classic Collection" - these are not the classics, these are the books written by their son and they are very religious. Like other reviewers have said, I wouldn't mind the religious messaging if the books were any good. Sadly, these are not.

2.0 out of 5 stars VERY RELIGIOUS! Not your standard Berenstain Books
Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2017
Just a heads up that this a ***religious*** collection, including "The Berenstain Bears: God Loves You", "...God Made you Special", and "...Go To Sunday School". Because they say "Classic Collection" I assumed it would be a set of the most well known of the books I remember from my childhood -- not the case! I didn't look at the photo closely enough to see the actual titles and am now returning it.
