Editorial Reviews:

When Papa Bear tells the cubs why they should never talk to strangers, Sister begins to view all strangers as evil until Mama brings some common sense to the problem. "The Bears' rules for safe conduct among strangers are listed on the last pages, including a rule about the privacy of a bear's body. A good book to start awareness in young children."--School Library Journal.

Summary: Stranger Danger Taught in an Unalarming Manner
Comment: Berenstain Bear books are great on so many levels. They present topics in a manner that is easily understood by pre-school / elementary age children. My daugther loves to read these books herself, which is another plus. These books help build reading and comprehension skills. The price if reasonable and with free shipping, it is a good deal all around.

Summary: Not a good explanation
Comment: Bought this for my 4 year old son to help talk to him about strangers, and what they are, and who they are. This doesn't help explain that. An ok story, but he lost interest in this book before I was done reading it. And he loves to read books.

Summary: Great stranger danger book for children
Comment: The Berenstain Bears did a great job explaining strangers and how to act around all strangers. Very appropriate for young children.

Summary: Two boys' review: Helps broach the danger without scaring kids
Comment: I've reviewed many of the Berenstain Bears books available at Amazon. I mix these books into the bedtime reading rotation for our two young sons. I like these books because they allow me to review manners, morales and important lessons at the end of the day.

"Learn About Strangers" is as important a topic as it is difficult to teach without scaring your kids. This book shows how everyone needs to be aware of their surroundings. At different points in the story, both of the young bears get caught up and forget the book's lesson. Fortunately, their sibling is able to help remind them to be careful.

I also recommend these other Berenstain Bears' books:

The Berenstain Bears Get in a Fight
The Berenstain Bears and the Trouble with Chores
The Berenstain Bears Forget Their Manners
The Berenstain Bears and Too Much TV

Summary: Great book
Comment: I have talked to my daughter on many occasions about strangers. However, after reading this book to her several times (and stopping to talk about what was happening), she's finally starting to understand that she shouldn't interact with strangers unless her parents are around.
