I loved The Berenstain Bears as a child, and I'm thrilled that my children love them too. We've had Berenstain Bear books and movie/videos in our collection for years.... each of my 5 children have loved them, and has gone through a Berenstain Bears phase at some point..... my youngest, 7, is currently in this phase. These books are part of our bedtime reading every night.
Teamwork! This books main idea is working together as a team to get a job done. In the book the Berenstain bear family and their cousin Fred and his dog, Snuff, travel all over town to seek out who stole Papa Bear's honey. In the end they learned that it was Papa bear sleep walking all along and they chant, "The case is solved! No case is too tough for the Bear Detectives and our food sniffer, Snuff!"
the bears cubs are being detectives and have to figure out who hate the honey. it was papa when he was asleep.
