The Berenstain Bears and Too Much Pressure by Jan Berenstain, Stan Berenstain

mjfmjfmjf's review against another edition

3.0

A simple concept book. I kind of don't agree with the idea of pressure as it's used here. It's more just doing too much. And it's a bit thin on the characters, it's definitely surface-y. But readable and with the same art as always. Kind of an abrupt ending that down plays the pain of having to stop doing some things in order to appreciate doing other things.

"Then Mama did something the cubs had never seen her do before. She started to cry. Big wet tears rolled down her cheeks. The cubs forgot karate and soccer and everything else except that their mama was crying."

Whew! It's nice having read this as a child and getting the other perspective as an adult, because it's a very relatable text.
