About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is feeling small in a big world or expresses a budding curiosity about the hidden lives of garden creatures. It is an ideal choice for transitioning from simple animal stories to more complex, science-based narratives that emphasize the beauty of purpose and community. Following a worker bee named Scout, the story tracks her first flight as she navigates predators and weather to find nectar for her hive. While primarily a science book, it functions as a metaphor for bravery and teamwork. Your child will see how a tiny individual contributes to something much larger, making it a perfect tool for discussing how we all have important roles to play within our families and communities. The lyrical prose and stunning illustrations make it a soothing but intellectually stimulating bedtime or classroom read.
