About the Author

Stan and Jan Berenstain introduced the first Berenstain Bears books in 1962. Mike Berenstain grew up watching his parents work together to write about and draw these lovable bears. Eventually he started drawing and writing about them too. Though Stan died in 2005 and Jan in 2012, Mike continues to create the delightful Bear adventures from his studio in Pennsylvania, in an area that looks much like the sunny dirt road deep in Bear Country.

Editorial Reviews

The son of the original creators of the Berenstain Bears series continues the saga of the popular bear family with several titles that focus on religious or moral issues. In this volume, Mother Bear decides that the family should return to attending weekly church services, a tradition that fell by the wayside when the bear cubs got involved in soccer and ballet lessons. As the family heads off to church together on Sunday morning, each element of the service is briefly explained. Brother and Sister Bear attend Sunday school, where they learn about Noah's Ark from the same teacher who taught Mama and Papa Bear when they were children. Fans of the series will feel right at home with the familiar story structure and cheery illustrations, which retain the same style as the many, many other earlier offerings about the family. Other entries in this new spinoff series include The Berenstain Bears and the Golden Rule (9780310712473), The Berenstain Bears: God Loves You! (9780310712503) and The Berenstain Bears Say Their Prayers (9780310712466). (Picture book/religion. 38)

Kirkus Reviews

Michael’s enthusiasm about his work is contagious. He is not only committed to creating sound, edifying instructional literature for young children, but he is energized by his continuing opportunity to challenge children and their parents to think seriously about significant life issues and practices such as giving thanks, loving near-and-far neighbors, applying the rules of good sportsmanship and nurturing relationships with each other and with God.
