The Bumblebee Garden

This charming story about a curious child watching the bees in his garden will teach young readers what makes bees special.

Ben and Grandpa are busy in the garden when Ben spots a fuzzy bumblebee in a cosy coat, just like him. With Grandpa's help, Ben learns all about the lives of the bumblebees, and how much he has in common with his buzzy friends.

Through the lyrical story young children will understand the life cycle of bees, and their importance to the balance of the natural world. The luminous illustrations will inspire readers to celebrate these remarkable, vital insects and help them thrive in their own gardens and nearby green spaces.
