The legendary Bigpaw turns the Bear Family’s Turkey Day upside down!
 
Papa Bear can’t wait for the 3rd Thursday in November, when he can feast on turkey with all the trimmings and his favorite treat of all: mixed nuts. But a message in the harvest honeycomb strikes terror in the heart of Mama Bear. Bigpaw, the legendary Thanksgiving monster, is coming to Bear Country to make sure the bears are remembering to share nature’s great bounty with others. Papa pooh-poohs the legend because, after all, he knows best—no ifs, ands, or buts! Accompanied by Brother and Sister Bear, he travels to the mixed-nut forest to gather his special holiday treat. The animals are quaking in their boots—Bigpaw is already here! Are the cubs in danger?
 
In this delightful, illustrated poem, the Berenstain Bears discover the true gift of sharing.

 

作者简介

Stan Berenstain (1923–2005) and Jan Berenstain (1923–2012) were a husband-and-wife cartooning team best known for creating the internationally beloved Berenstain Bears. Both born in Philadelphia, they met on the first day of art school, and were married after World War II. Inspired by their children’s love for Dr. Seuss, the Berenstains created a cartoon version of their own family, and with The Big Honey Hunt (1962) began a series that would stretch to more than two hundred volumes.
 
Starring Papa Bear, Mama Bear, Sister Bear, and Brother Bear, the books quickly became popular for their evocative drawings and simple explanations of wholesome themes. The stories sold more than 200 million copies worldwide and have been adapted as movies, television shows, and amusement park attractions. The Berenstains’ younger son, Mike, has overseen the series since his parents passed away, ensuring that it will continue to be popular with each new generation of young readers.
