A new Thanksgiving storybook featuring everyone’s favorite bear family—the Berenstain Bears! Kids ages 3 to 7 will enjoy this sweet, Thanksgiving-themed story filled with fun, colorful illustrations—it’s the perfect read-aloud for the holiday season!

This 32-page hardcover Berenstain Bears storybook, inspired by a Berenstain Bears Thanksgiving special that originally aired November 20, 1980, tells the tale of Bigpaw, the biggest bear in Bear Country! Will Brother and Sister be able to convince their neighbors that he’s just a very large and friendly bear? This humorous holiday tale is a story about acceptance and making new friends!
Mike Berenstain is an author and illustrator of children's books. He is the son of Stan and Jan Berenstain, creators of the popular Berenstain Bears series of picture books. Like Stan and Jan before him, Mike draws on his own experiences as a parent (and, now, grandparent) to inspire the family themes he writes about—including Baby Berenstain Bears, a new line of adorable board books for the very youngest fans. He lives and works in the rolling countryside of Eastern Pennsylvania—a place that looks very much like Berenstain Bear Country. View titles by Mike Berenstain
