"The Berenstain Bears Keep The Faith" is from the Living Lights Berenstain Bear books published by Zonderkidz. These books help children learn how God wants them to live every day. "Keep The Faith" is a high quality paperback book, colorful and much the same as the original Berenstain Bears collections. This particular book is intended for children ages 4-8, and is appropriate for that age group. The illustrations are very well done, giving children a wonderful visualization of the story.

The story describes how Brother and Sister Bear enjoy playing with their friends, and the activities that they enjoy. One of their friends, Ferdy Factual was like his Uncle Factual, a scientist bear. Ferdy offered to bring his telescope to their house so that Brother and Sister could observe the moon, which they enjoyed very much. When Sister exclaimed that "God certainly did a good job" Ferdy asked "Why mention God?" Sister explained that God created everything, but Ferdy disagreed stating that he doesn't believe in God. Brother and Sister were confused and asked Mama and Papa about believing in God. Mama and Papa explained that their beliefs were based on faith in God, but Brother and Sister didn't understand Faith. Mama and Papa suggested talking to Preacher Brown about faith. Preacher Brown told the bears the story of Daniel and the lion's den. He then explained that it was Daniel's trust in God that saved him from the lions. Trusting in God's love is what faith in God is all about.

"The Berenstain Bears Keep The Faith" book is well written and well illustrated, and an excellent tool for teaching early elementary school aged children about God. The lesson is directly from the bible, and is easy for children of that age to understand.
