My Take on the Book For anyone who loves nature, this is a book that will transport you into the world of bees. The stories are vivid and truly bring out the amazingly complex world of bees and all of the things that they do to make our world that much better .After reading this book, I have to say that I have a much higher appreciation for bees and can see why it is so important to have them in our world! This was a great collection of well written stories that all should read (it is not a book just for kids)!

Bee-Come! The New Collection of Short Stories that Inspires Children to Connect with Nature!
Recently, I was asked to tell you all about a very special book. ‘Bee-Come!’ is captivating insight into the important role that bees play in the interconnectedness and coexistence of Earth. Beautifully told through a collection of short stories about nature, children and the young at heart will view one of the planet’s most useful creatures in a positive new light. Tsehay Alemayehu’s book is brilliantly written and will touch the hearts of people of all ages! I read the publisher's preview. In the story, very important questions are asked and I feel that the book encourages children to think about their actions.
