Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Discover the secret life of bees: from queens to the waggle dance, hives to honey, beekeeping, and why bees need our help to survive.

Kids can dive right into Being a Bee and discover fascinating facts about life in the hive, bee families, and how older bees work together to look after and bring up the baby bees. Children will also learn some interesting information about beekeeping, how and why bees make honey, and how they dance to communicate with other bees. Being a Bee also gently introduces the idea of conservation--explaining why bees are in danger, why we must protect them, and all the ways we can help, including planting wild flowers and buying local honey. Sweet and engaging text plus bright and captivating illustrations will turn your little honey into an honest-to-goodness bee expert!
