This is an excellent book reviewing the basics of bee anatomy and the honey making process, not only for children but also for novice beekeepers. Beautiful illustrations as well.
The Gail Gibbons books are a great series for any child who likes non-fiction. I have always used them as read-alouds, but they can be read by late first and second grade readers with good reading skills.
I found a copy of this book in the Science museum in Sudbury--I was amazed by all the things I learned about bees. I highly recommend this book.
A good choice for kids and one that can be adapted for younger readers until they grow into it. Makes an important contribution to their understanding of the critical role played by honeybees and other pollinators.
Our family are home schoolers, so we are always looking for very fun educational resources. This is a great educational book. Lots of great info. The only thing I would warn you about is there is some evolution theory content, but overall lots of great info. We also purchased the safari ltd life cycle bee set. Together they were really fun! And if you're reading it to your children you can change the billions of years to thousands of years yourself.
as a home school book, this is a great intro into the lives of bees. It helps bring appreciation instead of fear.
Gail Gibbons' books are so fun to read. Kids learn about topics thru easy read and bright colors. I have several covering all subjects and kids love them.
This book is a great non-fiction read for almost any level. Younger grades will love hearing it and the upper grades will love studying it. I teach 4th grade and there are good relationships with this book to Common Core. Sequencing, cause/effect, compare/contrast, analyzing, and on and on. Awesome non-fiction book and great book all around!!! Highly recommended!!
