Description

Janney and her mum always sang together to help the flowers in Abuelita's garden grow. But now her mum is gone, and Janney's song is stuck, somewhere deep inside. Bullies at school don't help.

Every day, Janney watches one particular bee in Abuelita's garden. Working harder than the others—focused and unafraid—the tiny bee doesn't give up. Janney begins to feel inspired by the hardworking bee as the seasons change, until one afternoon, a melody escapes her lips, and Janney's song once again fills the air in the garden.

And when the music begins, her mum's songs sing through her heart, giving Janney the strength to overcome her fears and sing loudly and proudly to the bees... and beyond.
