Reviews

'The plight of honeybees (and all our bees, in fact) is well known, so it is good to see a new book for KS1 children about these vital insects. This book has all the features needed for an early fact book, to enable children to learn research techniques...with its colourful pages, good sized colour photographs and just the right amount of information.' * www.parentsintouch.co.uk (August 2011) *
