Review:

While some of the books are wholesome and appropriate with great messages, some books in the series do contain name-calling and incorrect messages. For example, in some of the books the father is portrayed as a bumbling fool. The books in the series are reading Levels 1-3, with most of them being on reading Level 2.

Books in this series we have reviewed and recommend: Clean House, The Berenstain Bears Go on Vacation, Dinosaur Dig, New Kitten, Four Seasons, When I Grow Up, The Berenstain Bears Think of Those in Need, The Sitter, Family Reunion, The Baby Chipmunk, The Lemonade Stand, All Aboard! The Shaggy Little Pony, We Love Trucks, Down on the Farm, Safe and Sound!, The Berenstain Bears are a Family, Seashore Treasure, The Big Red Kite, We Love Our Dad, Old-Fashioned Christmas, Bears in the Night, Spooky Old Tree, The Missing Dinosaur Bone, and any in the “Living Lights” series.
