If you’re a bear who loves honey, this is absolutely the book for you. It’s a must for everyone else too, a wonderfully funny spoof guide starring a bear, our would-be beekeeper making up for in enthusiasm what he lacks in skills. An astute pigeon comments from the side-lines on the bear’s progress, making everything even funnier.
From finding the bees to building a hive (NB as a note explains, bears with limited access to power tools may prefer to buy a ready-made hive) and harvesting the honey, the bear learns it all through trial and quite a lot of error. He’s rewarded with as much honey as he could wish for, though there’s still a sting in the tail.
The bear’s education process is wonderfully comic and children and parents will laugh their way through the story. They will also, incidentally, learns lots about bees and beekeeping. It’s delicious!
Are you a bear considering keeping your very own bees? Can't get enough of delicious honey? Then this is the book for you!
