What began as an idea sparked by their young sons'interest in children's books has become over the years arguably thebest-selling children's book series ever. Since their inception, the Berenstain Bears stories haveexpanded to include picture books, beginning readers, and chapterbooks—even a hit TV show on PBS. Writing and illustrating the bookshas become a Berenstain family affair. Mike joined with his parentsas a creative team in the late 1980s. The Bear family has expandedover the years as well.
