RIP Stan Berenstain
The Berenstain Bears were some of my favorite characters as a child. Along with Ramona Quimby, they provided hours of reading pleasure during my early reading days. So, it is with great sadness that I acknowledge the passing of Stan Berenstain, who wrote the series with his wife, Janice Grant. Their first editor was Theodor Geisel (aka Dr. Seuss). He died of complication of cancer at home at age 82.

He left a grand legacy.
I remember reading his books and they helped build a love for reading which i'm sure he did for many others also.
