4.0 out of 5 stars No Girls Allowed, September 29, 2003

A Kid's Review

I absolutely loved this book because it good for children between the ages of 4-8, thats when girls and boys dont really like to hang out because they have "cooties". This book teaches boys and girls that its okay to play around each other. I understand that it does get very annoying when a younger sibiling follows you around, all the time!!! I liked it how after brother bear made his "No girls allowed club" how sister bear retaliated and made a club where she baked food and all the boys wanted to come and eat it, even though he wouldnt let her into his club she let him into hers. But after she let him into hers brother bear let sister bear and her friends come over to his club and took down the "No girls allowed sign" and said "Girls welcome"!! It was a great story.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sore Winner Sore Loser, July 24, 2007

By	M. Vrieze "Rainbows" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Berenstain Bears No Girls Allowed (Paperback)

Brother and his friends get angry at Sister cause she shows off every time she wins at something. They build a fort far away in the woods. She finds out about it, but they won't let her inside nor any of her girls.

Papa helps her build a girl only fort. Then a cook out is made and the boys from the boy fort come to eat.

In the end they play together without restrictions.

Further this book shows that being a sore winner is just as rotten as being a sore loser.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bad Losers & Bad Winners too, January 11, 2004

By	Micole Roy (Sugar Land, Texas USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Do the boy cubs not want Sister Bear around simply because she is a girl or is it that she is boastful about being better than the (older) cubs? Should Papa Bear force the boys to let Sister Bear in their club or is there a better way to handle this situation? These are just some of the issues covered in this good book.

"The Berenstain Bears No Girls Allowed" is not just about boys versus girls. It highlights that it is important to be a good winner and promotes resolving issues in a win-win manner (rather than ripping your adversary limb from limb).

My son enjoyed this book. After reading it he said he was going to start a club for his boy friends and his girl friends. His sign would say "No Bullies Allowed".
