About the Author
* Stan and Jan Berenstain were both born in 1923 in Philadelphia. They didn't know each other as children, but met later at school, at the Philadelphia College of Art. They liked each other right away, and found out that the both enjoyed the same kinds of books, plays, music and art.
* During World War II, Stan was a medical assistant in the Army, and Jan worked in an airplane factory. When the war was over, they got married and began to work together as artists and writers, primarily drawing cartoons for popular magazines.
* After having their two sons Leo and Michael, the Berenstains decided to write some funny children's books that their children and other children could read and enjoy.
* Their first published children's book was called The Big Honey Hunt . It was about a family of bears, who later became known as the "Berenstain Bears".
* Over 50 children's books later, Stan and Jan still plan all of their books together -- both write the stories, and both write the pictures. They live outside of Philadelphia in the country.

Format:Paperback
As a homeschooling parent, this book was an excellent supplement to our science topics that we study. Topics covered include weather, animals, plants, insects, the five senses, holidays, seasons and many more. The rhyming verses on each page are entertaining and also educational. The animal section teaches about what characteristics make a mammal, and what characteristics constitute a living thing. Any child who enjoys the Berenstain Bear series will love this book. My 5 year old loved it and I enjoyed the educational content. The content is complemented by detailed drawings of each rhyme, and is concise yet thorough. I would definately recommend buying this book to add to your child's library!

Wonderful introduction to Science
My 4 yo daughter really loves this book. The information is very basic, but it introduces vocabulary that will be used in the coming years. It's colorful and fun.
