Tweaking Bedtime Stories

This is a clever compilation of six bedtime stories with unusual interaction between the characters in each story. The authors have tweaked some tried and true stories about bears to enable the parent to read & interact with his or her child/children; the endings turn out differently than previous stories of a similar nature, thus providing the parent with a story that will spark the child's interest, as well as test their listening skills. Just "as in life", the outcomes vary and the child's interest will be enhanced when they realized that the outcomes of any story may be different, and "you never know what's going to happen." The first, "Beware of the Bears!" is a variation on Goldilocks & the 3 Bears, but in this story, Goldilocks continues to outsmart the audience with her clever behavior and unpredictability. In "Big Bear, Little Bear", a mother's unconditional love is a forever feeling; it could also be a father's unconditional love, depending upon the circumstances. A third story, "Who's Been Eating My Porridge?" is a creative take on encouraging a child to "try eating something new", or someone else might enjoy eating it for you. There's reason for simple & good conversation before the children fall fast asleep, remembering the pleasant antics of the featured bears in six delightful stories.
