The Bee Who Loved Words

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

This is the story of a very small bee who makes a very BIG difference.

The Bee Who Loved Words introduces us to Persephone the bee, who is passionate about words!

Astronaut and telescope
Rhinoceros; kaleidoscope
Pterodactyl; saxophone
Pomegranate; xylophone!

The Queen Bee, Hermione, believes Persephone should focus less on words and more on seeking out flowers, which are becoming increasingly difficult to find. But what if Persephone can harness her love of words to help?

This is a read-aloud, read-again rhyming story that explores the power of words to effect change. It carries an important message about the importance of saving the bees.
