In The Berenstain Bears Why Do Good Bears Have Bad Days, Sister and Brother Bear decide to go on a bike ride and fishing trip in the countryside. After a hopeful start, things go very wrong. Brother falls into the pond, Sister's fishing rod breaks, and they get caught in the rain on the way home. Why did this bad stuff happen to them? It's not fair! Mama and Papa share with the cubs that good is mixed with the bad and sometimes the good is hard to see. But soon the family concludes that God has a plan for everything and faith in his plan allows us to trust that good will come in the end. The Berenstain Bears Living Lights stories serve as early readers, excellent read-alouds, and engaging conversation starters.
