Berenstain Bears Bibliography & Blog

Welcome to the world’s most complete bibliography of the Berenstain Bears book series! This catalog of books, memorabilia, and related ephemera has been an ongoing personal project for nearly 20 years. 

It is my desire to help fans and collectors have a complete and accurate Berenstain Bears book list that is easily accessible at all times.  The list is updated annually to reflect additions to the series (the books are still being published!), as well as occasional corrections or changes to the organizational system. Scroll down for the full list, which is updated frequently.

You can also view/download a printer-friendly PDF version but this is not updated nearly as often:

ALSO: Please use the menu to explore pages with information about other collectibles, including puzzles, board games, video games & software, plush toys, ceramics & figurines, and much more!

I hope this list will help you grow your collection and learn more about the Berenstain Bears.  And if you made it this far, you probably should join the “Berenstain Bears Collectors and Fans” group on Facebook. It’s a great way to connect with other fans, ask questions, and show off your favorite treasures.

Thanks for visiting!

Cub Club Books (Western Publishing/Golden Books)

Titles in the Cub Club book series were not available through traditional book retailers; this was exclusively a mail-order book club. Each shipment would contain a collection of brand new books (usually four) until a member had gotten the complete set of 34. First published by Western/Golden, the series was also published by Readers Digest Kids Books. All books in this series are hardcover; the Western/Golden editions have a matte finish and the Readers Digest editions are slightly thinner and with glossy covers. Many of the Cub Club books were used as source material for later books that were similar but (in most cases) not identical. Mike Berenstain, in his series of religious Living Lights books, utilizes these titles extensively in Christian-themed re-writes. As many identifying relationships as possible are noted below.

First Time Books / Berenstain Bears Classics (Random House)

The First Time Books series is the best-selling segment of the Berenstain Bears franchise; the series was re-branded as Berenstain Bears Classics beginning in 2018. New editions of these books bear an updated logo and name from the publisher, though they will continue to be organized in this bibliography as First Time Books. The only book whose text and/or illustrations have been changed for is “The Bully,” which received a modest re-write with the issuance of the 2018 edition.

It should be noted that the Berenstain Bears Classics are the best-selling series in the Berenstain franchise; these square (8” x 8”) paperbacks include several titles among the best-selling children’s paperbacks of all time. The following books have each sold over three million titles: New Baby, Messy Room, Go to School, Too Much Junk Food, Meet Santa Bear, Too Much TV, Forget Their Manners, Learn About Strangers, Visit the Dentist, and The Truth). This series and its popularity peaked in the 1980s and early 1990s, the height of the Berenstain Bears franchise. At present time, many of these books continue to be best-sellers amongst the Berenstain canon. Several First Time Books were also adapted into coloring/activity books, including “Go to School” and “Too Much Birthday”, amongst others. See the Coloring/Activity Books Section for more.

NOTE: The standard commercial edition for all First Time Books was paperback. However, hardcover editions were also available in publications by Grolier (primarily in Canada and other UK Commonwealth nations) and Turtleback Books (for libraries and educational institutions) for nearly all books in this series.

First Time Readers (Random House)

Beginning in 2018, some titles in this series were re-branded to the Berenstain Bears Classics series; titles of this nature include Big Road Race, Blaze a Trail, and Ghost of the Forest. First Time Readers are also complicated for the fact that the series contains three books by the Berenstains (and marketed as part of the Berenstain Bears series) but not actually featuring the Berenstain Bears. Additionally (and ironically), these were the first books made in collaboration with son Michael. These are listed below, but also included in the “Other Books by Stan & Jan Berenstain” and “Other Books by Mike Berenstain” sections of the bibliography.

• Big Road Race (1987)
• Blaze A Trail (1987)
• Missing Honey, and the (1987)

• Ready, Get Set, Go (1988)

NOTE: Several additional titles by Stan and Jan Berenstain were released in this series but do not feature Berenstain Bears. They include
