Berenstain Bears and the Trouble with Commercials, The
Brother Bear and Sister Bear love their daily television break after school. In between their favorite shows, they always look forward to the commercials! Sometimes the TV commercials are better than the shows. Brother and Sister Bear always want what the commercials are selling such as cereal, candy, toys, or even a trip to Grizzyland. Mama Bear teaches her little ones a lesson on how to spend money wisely and make sure what is bought such as a box of cereal is gone before purchasing another one.
