"A cheerful story about a dancing bee; part of the Bloomsbury Young Readers collection"
Purple Book Band, ideal for ages 6+
A great little read, we all love a rhyming book – brilliant for emerging readers, but also wonderful for children to listen to and guess the matching rhyming words.
The story is about Lola, a dancing bee, who loves to boogie-woogie wherever she goes, and how her habit leads from irritating the other bees to saving the day with her dance moves. The attitude of the bees reminds me of the little penguin Mumble, in Happy Feet.
In addition to the theme of tolerance and exclusivity, there is also the theme of the environment and how it is harder and harder for bees to find the flowers they need to gather nectar. Obviously, these are rather serious themes for little people, but it is never too early to familiarise children with the importance of nature and the role of insects.
It is illustrated so humorously by Pauline Gregory, who captures the mood and personality of the different bees in her sketches. A super new read for the Bloomsbury Library.
An upbeat rhyming story about bees and sustainability, ideal for children practising reading at home or in school.
