Explore the secret world of bees: how they live, how they work, how they support each other and their hive.
DK's The Bee Book is a wonderful introduction to the humble honeybee: nature's hardest worker, and much more than just a provider of honey! Bees are incredibly industrious, brilliant at building, super social, and--most importantly--responsible for a third of every mouthful of food you eat! Find out how bees talk to one another, what it takes to become a queen bee, what the life of a worker bee is like, and more!

Our Thoughts:
We recently read Charlotte Milner's 'The Sea Book' and absolutely loved it so when I saw that she had another nonfiction picture book about bees, we rushed to get our hands on it! The Bee Book was just as wonderful! Did you know that bees have inhabited planet Earth for over 100 million years? Or that there are around 20,000 different bee species? Learn everything you need to know about bees in this incredible nonfiction for kids.
You can learn about different types of bees, their anatomy, how they are born, how they grow, and where they come from.
Find out exactly what goes on in a beehive and how honey is made. Learn about pollination and what fruits and vegetables we can eat freely thanks to bees. You will even find out what animals, birds, and insects EAT bees!
There's lots of information on what threatens bees, why they are on the decline, and what would happen if they were no longer around.
The Bee Book also includes what we can do to help bees in our own backyards. There's a great page that shows lots of different wildflowers and what seasons to plant them in! There's even a page that shows us how to make our own bee hotel using bamboo sticks!
This gorgeously illustrated nonfiction picture book is a must-have!
