| | Berenstain Bears co-author diesFebruary 27, 2012 - Amy PhelpsSad news for all of us kids who grew up reading "The Berenstain Bears" series - Jan Berenstain passed away on Friday after suffering a stroke at the age of 88. Her husband, Stan, had passed away previous to this. Since she had been writing later books with her son, Mike, it may or may not be the end of the series. But I know I will shed a tear while reading a book about Mama Bear, Papa Bear and Brother and Sister Bear to my kids tonight. Article CommentsNo comments posted for this article.
