Stan and Jan Berenstain were both born in 1923 in
Philadelphia.They didn''t know each other as children,
but met later at school, at the Philadelphia College of
Art.They liked each other right away, and found out
that the both enjoyed the same kinds of books, plays, music and
art.During World War II, Stan was a medical assistant
in the Army, and Jan worked in an airplane factory.When
the war was over, they got married and began to work together as
artists and writers, primarily drawing cartoons for popular
magazines.After having their two sons Leo and Michael,
the Berenstains decided to write some funny children''s books that
their children and other children could read and
enjoy.Their first published children''s book was called
The Big Honey Hunt .It was about a family
of bears, who later became known as the "Berenstain
Bears".
Over 50 children''s books later, Stan and Jan still plan all of
their books together -- both write the stories, and both write the
pictures.They live outside of Philadelphia in the
country.
