The Life and Times of the Honeybee

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 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.)

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.

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!

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

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.

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

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.

O que mais amei foram as ilustrações. Mas o livro é completo! Repleto de informações sobre a vida das abelhas. Minhas filhas amam!

Great way to learn about honey bees. I bought this book for my 7 year old granddaughter who will be helping her father in his first year of beekeeping. I read through the book myself and found it to be very accurate and an easy to understand.

Bought for my 8 year old as he is interested in helping me keep bees. The illustrations are a good mix of factual drawings and cartoon type drawings. The information set at the right level for children to keep their interest.

Quirky book about bees! Lovely drawings and not too complex, my six year old loved it

Beautifully illustrated.I was looking for a nice living book that would grab my kids attention .No regrets.A great homeschooling tool.
