After learning the Bible verse, "Whoever is kind to the needy honors God," Brother and Sister Bear help out during a big storm.

I'm floundering a little bit because I know I wrote a review for this one but I cannot seem to find it. Alas, I'll try again.
“...Always strive to do what is good for each other and for everyone else.” - 1 Thessalonians 5:15
This book is all about community involvement and showing that even children can lend a hand and help when it's needed. There is a flood in bear country and the cubs do not seem to notice until it involves someone they known in cousin Fred, which makes it real and alive for them. Which is so true to us all in our closed off little worlds. We hear about natural disasters but they seem to just be facts we hear until it affects us either directly or through someone we know. For our family we personally live up hill, but near an area that has had some devastating flooding in the last two years. We watched the news cautiously and heard about community heroes stacking sand bags in the wet and danger to save the city from the rising river. having books like this one that cannot only explain what is happening, but to turn it into an example of how we can help (as the kids get older) and look at the promises from God and our future is great. I, for one, am very content with the Christian Living Lights Berenstain Bears books and this is a good one.
Thanks to Zondervan for providing a copy for review.
