If the Berenstain Bears can do it, your kids can too!

Read along as Brother and Sister and Honey Bear learn when to say "Let me help," "You're welcome," "Excuse me," "I'm sorry," "How are you?" "Nice to meet you," and, of course, "Please" and "Thank you."

The Berenstain Bears know that it's always best to be polite. Their good manners come in handy all the time: when fishing with Papa Bear, when making mud pies, when playing pirates with friends, and when putting on the school play. Even a run-in with the neighborhood bully is an opportunity to be polite!

About the Author
Berenstain, Jan: -

Stan and Jan Berenstain were already successful cartoonists for magazines and adult humor books when they began writing children's books. The first story starring the bear family, The Big Honey Hunt, appeared in 1962. Since then, more than 370 Berenstain Bears books have been published, and more than 300 million copies have been sold. What began as an idea sparked by their young sons' love of reading has become over the years arguably the best-selling children's book series ever.

Since their inception, the Berenstain Bears stories have expanded to include picture books, beginning readers, and chapter books--even a hit TV show on PBS. Writing and illustrating the books has become a Berenstain family affair. Mike joined with his parents as a creative team in the late 1980s. The Bear family has expanded over the years as well. Sister Bear arrived in 1974, and baby Honey joined the family in 2000.

Though Stan died in 2005 and Jan in 2012, Mike continues to create the delightful Berenstain Bear adventures from his studio in Pennsylvania.
