About the Author

* Stan and Jan Berenstain were both born in 1923 in Philadelphia. They

didn't know each other as children, but met later at school, at the

Philadelphia College of Art. They liked each other right away, and found out

that the both enjoyed the same kinds of books, plays, music and art.

* During World War II, Stan was a medical assistant in the Army, and Jan

worked in an airplane factory. When the war was over, they got married and

began to work together as artists and writers, primarily drawing cartoons for

popular magazines.

* After having their two sons Leo and Michael, the Berenstains decided to

write some funny children's books that their children and other children could

read and enjoy.

* Their first published children's book was called The Big Honey

Hunt . It was about a family of bears, who later became known as the

"Berenstain Bears".

* Over 50 children's books later, Stan and Jan still plan all of their

books together -- both write the stories, and both write the pictures. They

live outside of Philadelphia in the country.

Customer Reviews

A wonderful, rolicking story for the very young.
Simple, repetitive, and catchy - my one year old loves this book. With anticipation she waits for the end and joins in for the final "mama, mama, I went to town, inside, outside, upside down!"

Really teaches inside and outside
My 1-year-old loves this book. I was amazed when at 11 months she crawled into a big box I'd just brought in, when we read the "Going in" page and then came out with a big smile on her face when we came to the "Coming out" page. I saved the box and it's still a favorite game to act out the book.

TIMELESS
I read this book to my boys 30+ years ago, and am just thrilled to be buying it for a new grandson. I had no idea it was still available new. It is so cute and kids absolutely love it.
