Customer Reviews

a good christmas story with values

a good story reminding young ones that Christmas isn't all about getting presents. It does not have a religious overtone, so if you're looking for something more spiritual, keep looking.

A Great Christmas Lesson

This is a wonderful addition to the Berenstain Bear library. It tells a nice story with a helpful anti-materialistic Christmas message. It's a good way to counter the buy, buy, buy message that kids are bombarded with from the media. The illustrations are beautiful, too--there's a lovely scene of the bear family in a sleigh in the snow at the end.

A new "tradition" in our house

This book would be great for any family that is feeling overwhelmed with Christmas! It is a reminder to us all that Christmas has been lost in the decorating, the endless "I want" lists, artificial trees, light shows, etc... Santa Bear sees all of this happening in Bear Country and is very saddened by this and considers cancelling Christmas...One family shows him that their simple family Christmas still exists and Santa Bears faith in the old fashioned Christmas is renewed...The rhyming makes it easy for the kids to follow
