pathname expansion part two

[javajo91]

Reading "Learning the bash shell" and came across a passage that i simply
cannot get to work:

"For example, if you wanted to list all of the files in the directories /usr
and usr2, you could type ls /usr*.  If you were only interested in the files
beginning with the letters b and e in these directories, you could type ls
/usr*/[be]* to list them." 

When i type /usr*/[be]* i do not get all the files within /usr that begin
with a b or an e but instead get ALL the files within /usr/bin and /usr/etc.

Am i reading this correctly?
