RIP Children's author Stan Berenstain
I just heard this morning that Stan Berenstain, one of the authors of The Berenstain Bears died at the age of 82. He wrote the books along with his wife Jan. They had written over 200 stories.
I rediscovered their books when I was looking for appropriate material to read to my nephew. "Berenstain Bears Lend A Helping Hand" is a good one.

Berenstein Bears used to be one of my definite faves. I wore out the pages to one of my books from reading it so many times.

Yes! Those were classics.
Did anyone have their Science Fair book? I was always around the house trying to do one of their projects.

This is sad.
We read his books to all of our kids, and now our grand daughter.

I read them to both of my kids. I kept them so that I will have them someday when I become a Gramma

Growing up till age 7 as an only child I really enjoyed the brother-sister stories of these books. The Trouble With Money was one I really liked.
