If I Could Sit on a Bee’s Knees

Why do honey bees sting? How do they make honey? How are they different from wasps or bumblebees? These and other questions most often asked about honey bees are answered as a curious cat wanders through an interesting story with simple rhyme, enchanting illustrations, and up-close photographs from the world of this critical insect. A delightful blend of art, fiction, science and suggestions (can you buzz?) will make this a favorite to read with children.

The author speaks nationally on behalf of this insect, to groups of all ages and knowledge levels, about this important pollinator. Her website provides free, additional resources for educators, librarians and those who want to encourage children to read, to support learning about honey bees.
