Description:

Big ideas for curious minds are simply explained in this fascinating book about the secrets of bees.

Bees are incredible! There are so many different kinds found all over the world, from honeybees to diggers, leafcutters, and even meat-eating vulture bees.

Discover how a bee’s eyes see the world in a unique way, how bees pollinate plants, how they communicate with a waggle dance, and how without bees, the world would be a very different (and much less wonderful) place.

The first in a new series of illustrated single-subject STE(A)M books for children aged 7-10, exploring some of the universe’s most fascinating subjects.

Created in consultation with Professor Beverley Glover and Dr Sally Lee of the Cambridge University Botanic Garden.

Written in accessible, bitesize chunks and filled with bright, colourful illustrations on every page.
