The Bee by Becky Han
Based on an award-winning song by Inuit artist Becky Han, this book follows the narrator on an adventure across Nunavut with her buzzing companion."Should delight little ones with rhythmic and repetitive words and actions" —Kirkus Reviews
"[T]he folksong quality of the repeating structure and comic exaggeration are charming, and Tindur Peturs’ illustrations are breathtaking in the quietest of ways."—CM: Canadian Review of Materials
