Sophie Moon and the Honeybees. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781666416954)

A young girl overcomes her fears with the help of her grandfather and his honeybees.

It is springtime and nine year old Sophie Moon is excited about spending time with her grandfather in his log cabin.

He has a surprise for her. A package of honeybees is waiting to be installed in a new hive. Although it isn't the puppy Sophie hoped for; she is curious about the world of beekeeping.

During the passing seasons, the honeybees become the answer to many of her troubles and fears. "'Why don't we suit up and whisper to the bees. They'll hear you and mayhap give you advice, ' Grandpa said, smiling"

Supported by her loving grandfather and seeking solace by visiting the beehives in each season, Sophie's fears and relationships rise and fall throughout the school year.

A charming and educational story about personal growth tied closely to the life of honeybees.
