This is a delightfully different insect book about the lives of bees. The text answers many questions about bees that children are sure to ask. The author places the reader in the hive to show what one would know, how one would interact, and what life would be like if one had wings and fuzzy legs. The book then compares and contrasts human beings with bees in a witty and child-friendly manner.
