Description

A gentle intergenerational tale for young readers about the importance of patience and the fascinating work of beekeeping, from award-winning author Lester L. Laminack and celebrated illustrator Jim Lamarche.

Henry wants nothing more than to be like his Aunt Lilla and work with the beehives on their Lowcountry farm. He watches her every day, working hard outside in her bee suit, but what amazes him the most is her ability to communicate with the bees. Henry feels certain he can, too.

Then one day, Aunt Lilla tells him the bees are preparing to leave the hive and may leave the farm entirely. Henry believes it is up to him to communicate with the bees and convince them to stay, before it's too late.

An author's note includes additional information about bees and bee conservation.

About the Author

Lester Laminack is considered by many to be a Mister Rogers for teachers. An entertaining and knowledgeable speaker, he draws large audiences and uses this popularity to encourage the daily use of picture books, poetry, and spoken words in the classroom. An expert in childhood literacy, Lester is the author of many professional books for teachers, in addition to his popular picture books. Lester loves cats, but, alas, he is highly allergic to them and can only observe them from afar.

Nicole Wong grew up in Fall River, Massachusetts, the daughter of two artists. She drew constantly as a child, including on walls in the family home. She received her first free-lance illustration job at age 12. She went on to earn her BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design. She is now a full-time illustrator, and still lives in Fall River, with her husband, daughter, a mean (but loveable) cat, and two dogs.
