💛 A note from Apollo Reads

Great story about everybody's favorite pet... their own!

🧠 Read Together

Reading together for just 15 minutes a day builds vocabulary, focus and a lifelong love of stories.

  • Turn on captions (CC). Reading along with spoken words is one of the best ways to build fluency.
  • Read the title out loud together and talk about what you expect.
  • Pause the video and let your child read the next line before the narrator does.
  • Point out sight words (the, and, said, was) each time they appear.
  • Ask: “Who was the main character? What problem did they have? How was it solved?”
  • Have your child read one page aloud to you — or to a pet or stuffed animal audience!
  • Who was your favorite character in The Berenstain Bears' Really Big Pet Show, and why?
  • What was the problem in the story? How did it get solved?
  • If you could change the ending, what would happen instead?
  • How do you think the main character felt at the end?
