THE BEE TREE

Since Mary Ellen is not in the mood to do much reading lately, her grandfather suggests that instead they should try to find a bee tree and taste it's sweet honey. To do anything but reading, the curious girl agrees and they go buzzing around the town following the bees in search of the bee tree.

More and more people follow them from the neighborhood as they swarm through it. The grandfather patiently tries to instill the love of reading back into his granddaughter by spooning honey in a book and asking her to taste it's sweetness.

PATRICIA POLACCO has definitely written another great and sweet book to be read by everyone.


For pre-school to 2nd grade.
