The Berenstain Bears and the Wishing Star Audiobook Narrator
Lance Rubin is the narrator of The Berenstain Bears and the Wishing Star audiobook that was written by Jan Berenstain
Stan and Jan Berenstain were already successful cartoonists for magazines and adult humor books when they began writing children's books. The first story starring the bear family, The Big Honey Hunt, appeared in 1962. Since then, more than 370 Berenstain Bears books have been published, and more than 300 million copies have been sold. What began as an idea sparked by their young sons' love of reading has become over the years arguably the best-selling children's book series ever.
Since their inception, the Berenstain Bears stories have expanded to include picture books, beginning readers, and chapter books–even a hit TV show on PBS. Writing and illustrating the books has become a Berenstain family affair. Mike joined with his parents as a creative team in the late 1980s. The Bear family has expanded over the years as well. Sister Bear arrived in 1974, and baby Honey joined the family in 2000.
Though Stan died in 2005 and Jan in 2012, Mike continues to create the delightful Berenstain Bear adventures from his studio in Pennsylvania.

I remember this book as a little girl. I remember mom reading it to me every night before bed. It was my favorite then and still my favorite now. The first book to ever get me into reading will always have a special place in my heart which taught me to dream.

My Review: Munchkin learned about the wishing star earlier this year and I thought this would be a fun book for him. As with all Berenstain Bears books it also has a great lesson to learn. It is a level one book which is great for those young readers, the words were all pretty easy and the sentences short. The repetitiveness of the story will also help emerging readers gain confidence. This was also a great book for gearing up for the holiday season as Sister doesn't get everything she wished for, and is a good thing for those with a mile long Christmas wish list to hear.

This is a Beginning Reading level 1 Berenstain Bears Book. Sister Bear learns about the wishing star and the rhyme we say when we see it and wish upon it. Sister soon learns that when she wishes that she gets her wishes BUT when her third wish doesn't come true; it's Brother that helps her to see that it was her that helped herself make those wishes come true and that it's just 'fun' to wish upon a star. Encouraging children to work toward things they want and help their own self esteem in doing something they are proud of.

I like that Sister Bear learned that if you work hard to get your wish you're more likely to get it than if you don't try to make it happen yourself.
