Our take on the The Berenstain Bears and the Bad Dream

A First Time Book from Stan and Jan Berenstain in which Brother and Sister start having bad dreams and Mama and Papa help them understand that dreams feel scary but are not real. It is a short, gentle read-aloud aimed at preschoolers and early readers who are working through nighttime fears. It comes with over 50 bonus stickers. Compared with longer Berenstain titles, it is a focused problem book: one worry, one lesson, and a reassuring ending rather than a full adventure.
