<p>Jan and her husband Stan Berenstain created the lovable Berenstain Bears (Mama, Papa,  <A HREF='http://www.holysmoke.co.za/eGmIdr3/6vOXE6WRpl.jep.AvRRNAwY0j71pq2TcKfOwx.lhwe'>바카라 보는곳</A> Sister and Brother,) back in 1962. Since then, 300 books have been published about the bear family and the many predicaments they have faced and conquered. Their “big tree house down a sunny dirt road” has been the scene of lessons in family life that have sold more than 250 million copies. The bears also have come to life in animated TV shows and even on the stage.  </p>
