***Special thanks to Krista Ocier of Zondervan for sending me a review copy.***ABOUT THE AUTHORS:
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. Mike is married to Andrea, and they have three children. They live in Pennsylvania, in an area that looks a lot like Bear Country.

What Mom Liked: We're Berenstain Bears fans at our house, and I'm loving the Christian themes coming up in them! This was a nice story about how God gives courage for us to do the right thing (particularly in defending others), even if we don't think we can do it beforehand.
Esmé's been on a David and Goliath kick lately, so this book was the perfect combination. (Somewhat to Dad's detriment - one morning found her swinging her purse around and around, hitting Dad in the groin. "David and Goliath, Daddy!" she explained.)
And the part I found amusing: David is known for fighting off the lions and bears, but of course, you need to come up with an alternative when David IS a bear! So the book has him fighting off lions and WOLVES.
What Mom Didn't Like: Got nothing for you! A sweet book we both love...
