Child's Play: The Berenstain Baby Boom, 1946-1964: Cartoon Art Of Stan And Jan Berenstain

This profusely illustrated and humorous volume collects the Berenstains' early work, created from 1946 until 1964, inspired by their own experiences as parents in the postwar baby boom era. More than two hundred Berenstain drawings featured in McCall's, The Saturday Evening Post, and other publications--as well as Collier's magazine covers--fill these pages, evoking an era when the baby population exploded, American prosperity soared, and more and more families were escaping cities to live the suburban American dream. Although much of the artwork is more than forty years old, it reflects family life and values that we still hold dear.
