The Berenstain Bears thing seriously has me shook though.
Like, it would be one thing for an adult to read it as "Berenstein" because maybe they've seen last names similar to that all the time, but for a child? That's what I can't get over. Why would I pronounce it as "STEEN" when there was an A? I was a really good reader when I was a kid.
I always read and heard it as 'stain' but up until a year or two ago I thought it was spelled 'berenstein'
Lol weird.

The name was in cursive, so hard to tell. And also the VHS tapes which were somewhat common had typos that said Berenstein on them.
Now you see...the cursive is probably where I made my mistake. That's probably what it is!! ---
