Book Reviews of The Berenstain Bears and Too Much TV (First Time Books(R))

Book Review: Good message, but book needs updating
Summary: 2 Stars

I've reviewed several of the Berenstain Bears books available at Amazon. This one is my least favorite because it is stuck in the mid-1980s. Mother Bear supposes the increased TV viewing is a result of the family switching from a black-and-white TV to a color set or, perhaps, because Papa Bear installed a new antenna atop the tree house.

Seriously, in a world of satellite TV, digital video recorders and on-demand movies, do you think upgrading to color television is the issue?

The rest of the book, which focuses on outdoor activities and the value of a family dinner time, is still valuable, but could use an update as well.

Skip this book and pick up "The Berenstain Bears and the Trouble with Commercials" instead.
