Bumblebee by Jv Wilson
A beautifully illustrated story of a year in the life of a bumblebee queen published to highlight an insect whose plight could have huge consequences for humankind.
Full of interesting information, clearly expressedThis is the kind of book which is a stepping stone towards the more impersonal language of mature informational writing which older primary school children encounter. Books for Keeps A valuable addition to the primary school library and a lovely gift for any child interested in the natural world. Armadillo Magazine It was with some trepidation that I opened this book. So many books written for children give a simplistic, and very often inaccurate, description of bees which makes a beekeeper despair. As a child's first introduction to these insects, it is so important to get it right - and , to mygreat relief, that is exactly what this books does... congratulations to the author. Bee Craft Well worth stocking in the nature section of a primary school library. School Librarian
