Another Care Bears book and record. This one focuses on Bedtime Bear, who after a long day of polishing stars, is ready to go to sleep, but finds it too bright.
This story exemplifies that the Care Bears are almost nauseatingly cute. I mean, they're chubby candy-colored bears with pictures of hearts and flowers and such on their bellies. They sleep on fluffy clouds and travel by balloon. They're not even regular balloons--they're heart-shaped balloons. But the cuteness doesn't end there. Because the plot of this story involves the bears trying to figure out why their clouds are too bright, until they all fall asleep in a big pile of cuteness on one big cloud, which was the moon's plan all along.
As bedtime stories for a 1980s 5-year-old go, this one does the trick. But I can't imagine what modern kids would think of it.
