Before The Big Honey Hunt was published in 1962–marking the beginning of the Berenstain Bears series–author-illustrators Stan and Jan Berenstain worked primarily as cartoonists. One of their most beloved series was “It’s All in the Family,” which featured a family of five (plus pets!) and ran for decades in McCall‘s and Good Housekeeping, as well as being anthologized in several volumes. In honor of the upcoming holiday, we’ve revisited the Berenstain archive to share with you some of our favorite Valentine-themed “It’s All in the Family” cartoons! 
Happy Valentine’s Day! We hope you’ll give your special someone a big bear hug from us.
