The Berenstain Bears forget their manners...

Wow, I have to say that every since I was in Elementary School, I have loved The Berenstain Bears. I am almost certain I've read each and every single book. I personally think that this book is perfect for children in Grade School, because these books helped me when I was growing up. I read the one about Junk Food, and even now, I try and not overload myself on sweets, and eat some fruits such as Mangos, Peaches etc. I think any new parent would be very wise to buy the entire collection for their little one(s).

Wonderful!

The world lost a real gem of a writer when Stan Berenstain passed on November 29. Together, Berenstain and his wife, Jan, and eventually their two sons, created books featuring lovable but flawed characters who tackle just about every real issue that faces families. This book is a great example. Almost all parents are familiar with the difficulty that kids have in learning and practicing good manners, and often have a tough time in teaching kids how to be polite. One of the best things about this book is that it's not just the kids who are the naughty ones, Papa Bear has some rudeness problems, and even Mama Bear succumbs to an issue at one point. It's great for kids to learn that manners are a lifelong skill that will always take a little bit of practice. This book is a wonderful place to start.

Prince Charles wanna-be

This book was an excellent influence on my child's rude behavior. My son, (being a huge fan of this line of books) has gone from a barnyard animal to a Prince Charles wanna-be. He now thinks twice before belching in public, he asks to excuse himself from the kitchen table, the list goes on and on. Thank you Jan Berenstain!
