GIVE BEES A CHANCE

A splashy non-fiction picture book about the unsung heroes of the bug world: bees!

In this enthusiastic, hands-on approach to bees, the book's narrator will convince the pizza-loving bee skeptic--and you--of just how cool bees really are. Did you know that 98 percent of bees are girls? Or that they have two stomachs (which would come in handy for more pizza eating)? Bethany Barton's hilarious text and kid-friendly illustrations will have you singing the praises of our buzzing neighbors--or at least will convince you to give bees a chance.

Bethany is the author of I’M TRYING TO LOVE SPIDERS, which was a 2016 Children’s Choice Book Award Winner and received starred reviews from Publishers Weekly and Kirkus Reviews.
