<p>"<b>A chatty, wide-ranging introduction to the honey bee</b> for older preschoolers and younger elementary-age students... This efficient offering stands out in its comprehensiveness, unspooling for readers a neat string of cool facts. <b>As hardworking as the insect it celebrates</b>." --<i>Kirkus</i><br><br>Praise for the <i>Young Zoologist </i>series:<br>"What makes this series stand out is that the illustrations, bite-sized facts, and clear labels make it <b>easy for the youngest of readers to navigate the text and absorb the information there</b>." -- <i>Booklist</i></p>
