Les oursons Berenstain et les problèmes à l'école

The story captures the ups and downs of starting school perfectly. I'm curious whether the author drew from personal childhood memories or observations.

The way the bears learn to work together and understand each other felt real and meaningful. Did that part resonate with anyone else's experience?

The story made learning about new experiences fun without losing depth. I wonder what guided the choice to keep it light but still meaningful.
