Summary: Learning About Pets.
Review: Every child wants a pet at least once in their lifetime. Most of the time it's because they think animals are cute and they never really take time to understand all that goes into taking care of an animal. In THE BERENSTAIN BEARS' TROUBLE WITH PETS, Brother and Sister Bear want a pet of their own after caring for an injured bird for a week. Soon after they select a puppy from Farmer Ben's new litter. It takes a few weeks before the cubs can take the dog home, so in the meantime they read up on a book about puppy care. When they finally get the dog, the have to get him a license, leash, and shots. Then there are all the things that go along with taking care of a dog, including cleaning up the nasty accidents. The puppy grows into a big pup, and becomes too big for the house and has to be moved outside. The Bear family loves her very much and she becomes another member of the family.Children rarely consider all that accompanies raising a pet, from the shots to cleaning up "accidents" to the fact that some animals grow so much they are no longer able to live inside one's home (they are just too big). This book introduces many things that children may not think about on their own and therefore is a great read for any kids that maybe wanting a pet of their own.

Summary: Good book
Review: I bought this book for my niece after she got her first puppy and she loved it. The book is about the bears getting a new puppy and along with that comes new responsibilities and learning how to cope with the puppy and give it the attention it requires. Caring for the new puppy is hard work, but they realize that the work is well worth it when they consider all the love and affection they receive from their wonderful pet. The book has wonderful color illustrations and is easy to read.

Summary: GREAT FOR ANIMAL LOVERS
Review: My little brother just got his first puppy, along with this book for his birthday. He was not allowed to go near his new puppy until after he read this book. This book was a great inspiration for him. The book shows the little bears with their new puppy and it focuses on how much attention and affection a little puppy requires. The book also focuses on the pleasures of having a puppy and the frustrations of cleaning after it and all the work it takes caring for a puppy. This great book taught my little brother how to nurture, care for, feed and clean up. It taught him that having a puppy is a big responsibility and it was easy for him to read and understand.

Summary: The Berenstain Bears Troble with Pets
Review: The Bear family had taken in a little bird because its leg was broken. So Papa bear made a wooden splint for the little birds' leg. But when the time came to let the bird go, brother and sister became very sad. They asked Mama and Papa Bear if they could get a pet; Mama Bear said "no". But Papa Bear is all for it! So the Bear family all gets into the car to go to the pet store. So, they are driving along and brother sees a sign that says "PUPPIES AVAILABLE SEE FARMER BEN". Papa Bear drives into the drive-way and up to the barn. Sister finds a puppy and the whole family agrees on it. Farmer Ben gave them the puppy for free! They were so happy!! They had to wait a couple of weeks though because the puppy needed her mothers' milk. After the couple of weeks went by and it was time to go pick her up from farmer Ben. And they took her home.
The lesson this book teaches is that you should take responsibility of things you said you would. The age level for this book could be age's six to 10. I think that this book is good because it teaches how you should take responsibility of your pets.
