In Memory of Jan Berenstain, Co-Creator of Berenstain Bears Books
Feb 27th 2012, 15:13

Mike and Jan Berenstain of Berenstain Bears FameI was sorry to hear that Jan Bernestain, who, along with her husband, Stan, created the Berenstain Bears children's books, died Friday at the age of 88. After Stan's death in 2005, Jan continued to create more Berenstain Bears books, working with her son, Mike. I did an interview with Jan and Mike Berenstain in the spring of 2007 to learn about the books and the writing and illustrating process, including why the stories are about bears. In 2010, I interviewed Mike Berenstain about the Living Lights Berenstain Bears Christian series and about the Berenstain Bears movie.
