Look inside

Come celebrate Christmas in Bear Country with two Berenstain Bears Classics stories! Featuring The Mad, Mad, Mad Toy Craze and Meet Santa Bear, this 2-in-1 paperback picture book is the perfect Christmas addition to your Berenstain Bears library.

The Mad, Mad, Mad Toy Craze
Brother and Sister are caught up in a Beary Bubby collectors' craze that consumes their energy and imagination and also draws in Papa. In the end they all discover that it's not always worth it to follow the fad of the moment--there are other things in life that are more important than having more and more and more.

Meet Santa Bear
Christmas is coming, so Brother and Sister are thinking about their wish lists for Santa. When Sister's gets a bit too long, Brother reminds her that it might be best to think small so that when she meets Santa Bear, he'll know that her intentions are not naughty but, instead, nice.

Stan Berenstain and his wife, Jan, were already successful cartoonists for magazines and adult humor books when they began writing children's books. The first story starring the bear family, The Big Honey Hunt, appeared in 1962. Since then, more than 300 Berenstain Bears books have been published and more than 260 million copies have been sold. What began as an idea sparked by their young sons’ love of reading has become over the years arguably the best-selling children’s book series ever. Since their inception, the Berenstain Bears stories have expanded to include picture books, beginning readers, and chapter books—even a hit TV show on PBS. Writing and illustrating the books has become a Berenstain family affair. Mike joined with his parents as a creative team in the late 1980s. The Bear family has expanded over the years as well. Sister Bear arrived in 1974, and baby Honey joined the family in 2000.  View titles by Stan Berenstain
