It's great bear version of the good Samaritan. Filled with examples of stereotypes and prejudice and showing how things can work out in ways you least expect.

I love the Berenstain Bears books from my childhood and I am so happy that they are continuing the legacy into the childhood of my own daughter.

Brother and Sister Bear want to have fun, but learning how much more fun they could have once the job is done is a great thing.

I always love these, such a treasure for our shelves. I hope we can have a great collection of Berenstain Bears books for my daughter to read over and over again.
