About the Author

Stan and Jan Berenstain introduced the first Berenstain Bear books in 1962. Mike Berenstain grew up watching his parents work together to write about and draw these lovable bears. Eventually he started drawing and writing about them too. Though Stan died in 2005 and Jan in 2012, Mike continues to create the delightful Bear adventures from the family home and studio in Pennsylvania, in an area that looks much like the sunny dirt road deep in Bear Country.

How will you know which season is here? Come and we'll show you a Bear Country year.

A brand-new calendar! Hooray! Hooray! A whole new year starts today!

In the very first month on the very first day ...

is what we say.

Your knees shiver.

You see ice on the river.

Your breath shows.

You've got a runny nose.

You have to wear a scarf and cap.

Great Natural Bear starts his LONG winter nap.

Papa puts on long underwear.

There are fat snowflakes in the air.
