The Life and Times of the Honeybee

I was looking for a little book about honey bees as another visual for a presentation I was doing. This one was not only a pretty quick and easy read, but full of wonderful information. For anyone looking to learn about honey bees, this is a great start. Easy enough for kids to understand with beautiful pictures, but informative enough for adults as well. (I'm big on people learning the difference between honey bees and wasps, I think this book is great tool for learning how to identify bees and why they are so important.)

This is a child’s book but I learned so much about bees. It is very well done, interesting and informative with lovely illustrations.

I recently checked out a couple of books from the library about bee's for my nine year old granddaughter, who loves honey! She is a bit of a reluctant reader, but I thought a book about something she loves would 'hit the spot' and this one did. She enjoyed learning about the life of bees through nicely illustrated pages and concise paragraphs. I was surprised at how much I learned, too! There is a two page section that shows some different flowers and trees from which bees gather nectar - that gave me the idea to search local stores and the Internet to buy different types of honey and a honey comb. Having the book and 7 different samples of honey has turned into a wonderful family learning experience. I commend the author, Charles Micucci, for his selection of facts and his presentation of them to young readers.

This book is great! My husband is a beekeeper and he loves the information in it. He uses it to help when he tell kids about bees. There's so much good information in this little book.

Wonderful little book purchased for my grandson after he tried to steal his grandmother's copy.

I appreciate the beautiful illustrations in the book. There is too much information to use it as a story book for a 4-year old, but we did read through it once. It would be great for a primary student who wants to know more about bees. It was informative for Grandma, too!

Purchased this book for my daughter who is now fascinated with bees. She loves this book! This is a great book full of facts and is really educational. Has great pics and is very detailed. Would recommend this book to anyone whose children want to learn about bees and their essential importance.

Bought for a 10 y.o. niece. Such a well done book about bees with beautiful illustrations
