Fun, informative and factful, The Beehive is a true deep dive into the world of the Native Stingless Bee... And evokes fascination and wonder and a desire for children to perhaps acquire a hive of their own. * Kids Book Review * Highly recommended. The Beehive, written by well-known and highly regarded Queensland teacher librarian and author Megan Daley, is a wonderful narrative non-fiction picture book about a young girl called Willow who shares her love of native Australian stingless bees in an engaging story. * ReadPlus *
