Farewell to a Legend

While this post is not specifically related to technology, it is related to reading and libraries.  A few weeks ago, the literary world lost a legend in Jan Berenstain.  For myself and legions of people around the world, The Berenstain Bears book series was an integral part of my childhood.  I can remember requesting the books to be read to me and, when I could read them myself, devouring the titles over and over again with relish.  I loved the simple lessons and good morals that the book imparted, even as a child.  While the co-creator of the Berenstain Bears is no longer with us, her legacy in her delightful children's books will continue to live on.  I for one, can't wait to share the first trip to Bear Country with my own children someday. :-)
