Our take on the The Berenstain Bears and the Shaggy Little Pony

A Level 1 I Can Read paperback from 2011, written by Jan Berenstain and published by HarperCollins. The cubs meet a shaggy little pony and learn about caring for it, told in simple rhyming-style sentences with the familiar Bear Country art. It suits children just starting to read on their own, roughly ages 4 to 7, and sits alongside the many other Berenstain Bears early readers as a short, gentle story rather than a longer picture book.
