Wonderful Bedtime (or,anytime) story that teaches a lesson in Kindness

Be Kind
It always amazed me how well these BB stories held up over time from when I was a kid to now about 30 years later that many of these still ring true. I liked the message in this one - being nice to others does come back to you. Since Brother let a much younger cub help him with his model airplanes, he was able to help an older group of bears launch a rocket. Nicely illustrated and on-point with the message. Makes my son want to build and fly model airplanes

Great message!
Wonderful book about Brother Bear, who gets included by Father bear as he's learning to build model airplanes and how he feels being included. Brother bear then pays it forward when he is asked by a younger bear if he can be included. The Berenstain Bear books have always been a favorite, but sometimes a bit too long for younger readers. This one is a little less wordy and the storyline holds the interest for longer. Overall, the story has a wonderful message for young readers about remembering to include others the way you've been included.

Good kindness message
I remember the Berenstain Bears books from when I was a child. I can't believe they're still making them! I ordered this for my classroom. It arrived in great condition and quickly. I think the kids will really enjoy it. I like the message. More kids need to be exposed to lessons, ideas, and stories of kindness, because unfortunately, some don't hear these things at home anymore.

Berenstain Bears books typically contain too many examples of bad behavior that I don't like buying them for my kids. (Someone else also mentioned this in a review). I was pleasantly surprised by this book. It actually has a positive example. My kids really loved this book and were able to apply it to their lives. They have some good thought provoking questions in the back as well to help create more discussion about this book. I'm glad I bought it.

I don't like this book's message at all. It basically says that if you are nice to someone, someone will be nice to you in return-- that we are nice to others in order to get something back. That's not the message I want to send to my child. It's unfortunate because we love all of the other Berenstain Bears books we've bought.

The Berensteins are members of my family. I'm a granny now and the second generation are loving the Bears. This is another very true to life un-prissy story which brings out another human truth for living together. It is so well told without the bears being too goody goody. I have been buying lots of these lately for my grand children aged 4-7.

My daughter loves these books, as I did too. Amazon sells them for a fair price and I was happy with this purchase. Teaches valuable lessons, arrived in good shape and fast shipping. NOTE this is from there religious series I had read reviews and did not want to order the religious book but did order by mistake as I had a few different books in my cart but it really only mentions a quote on 1 page and is not a big deal. Easy to skip over if you don’t want to include it or u can include while reading to your child. I am happy with this book.

Brother helps a younger cub build a model airplane and in return he is shown how to build a rocket. Mentors are important in spiritual formation as well as life skills.
