There Are Bees In My Trees!

Sometimes bees happen to take up residence in very strange places, and a
beekeeper has to be called to move them to a new hive. Bees can sting you, and sometimes that hurts a lot; so you need to be very careful about bees.

However, all creatures have their place in the ecosystem, and this is a very important concept children need to learn and know. That said, everything has its place, and bees in the walls of homes need to be moved to a hive that is outside where it is safe for everyone, even if it means the mouse must also go.

Read the poetry and enjoy the funny illustrations of Penelope Dyan as your child learns about one small part of the ecosystem in one very small way, and about how we all have to make adjustments (sometimes) in our lives, even mice and bees. Use this little book as a sounding board to discuss place and change, and about how all things work together for good, even if we have to make a compromise (as these bees had to leave).

Penelope Dyan, author of 'Surfer Girl,' best teen book at the 2008 New York Book Festival and best teen book at the 2008 Hollywood Book Festival, a
former teacher and attorney, really understands kids. She brings all her
knowledge and love of children with her as she writes her books, and like all Bellissima Books, her books have a lesson and a purpose.
