I'm so glad they came out with this book. I used to be so afraid of bees. Just the sound of their buzz made my skin crawl. That was until last year when I visited our county fair. During a sudden rain storm, I took cover in one of the fair barns. It just happened to be the bee keeper's barn. As the rain came down, I spent my time reading up on honey bees. I was so fascinated by them that I borrowed several books from the library about raising honey bees. I haven't made this my hobby yet, but I have different outlook on them, that's for sure. I think it's wonderful they have a book that children can read and learn about just how much bees help the world around them.
