Kids will love the sweet story of Bee & Me by Elle J. McGuinness and illustrated by Heather Brown. This beautiful book tells the story of a little boy and a bee that unexpectedly meet after a dog chases the bee into the house. The two, although startled to meet each other at first; soon find commonality and eventually a sense of companionship.

The little boy is initially quite scared of bees and the busy little creature he encounters alleviates his fears. She also teaches him the important work that bees do for the planet.

We’re good for much more
Than just honey, you see,
We bees help flowers,
The bushes and the trees.

The bee gently explains that without bees there would be no plants, flowers or even apples.

Bee & Me uses lyrical rhymes, bright illustrations and the innovative AniMotion Illustration Technique to convey the story to children. The new AniMotion technique, a type of moving animated panel, provides an extra interactive dimension to the bee tale.

Bee & Me also contains an end section More About Our Bee Friends explaining some valuable information about bees. Did you know to make just one pound of honey, a colony of bees will fly 55,000 miles and gather pollen and nectar from two million flowers?

A beautiful, heart-warming book that helps children (and adults) understand how essential bees are to the planet.
