Take to the sky with Apis, one honeybee, as sher embarks on her journey through life

Follow the life cycle of this devoted and extraordinary worker as she cleans the hive, tends to larvae and the queen, builds wax comb, and guards the hive from invaders - before embarking on her first flight to seek nectar.

Eric Rohmann's exquisitely detailed illustrations bring the great outdoors into your hands in this poetically written tribute to the hardworking honeybee. Award-winning author Candace Fleming presents the life cycle of the honeybee in accessible, beautiful language. Honeybee also features a stunning gatefold and an essay on the plight of honeybees.
