"Ben and his grandfather watch throughout the year as the bees life cycle is played out in their garden"
A Julia Eccleshare Pick of the Month March 2024
Little Ben and his grandfather share a delight in their garden and especially, they enjoy watching the bees and thinking about what they bring to the plants and to our food.
When Ben realises how much bees help to feed us he decides that he should make sure that we feed them in return! Grandpa shows Ben how to make a wild place in the garden where the queen bee can make her nest and how to plant wildflowers which will provide a feast for the bees. Together they watch throughout the year as the bees life cycle is played out in front of their eyes.
In the chilly early spring, Ben and Grandpa are busy in the garden. Ben spots a fuzzy bumblebee in a cosy coat, just like him.

In the chilly early spring, Ben and Grandpa are busy in the garden. Ben spots a fuzzy bumblebee in a cosy coat, just like him. As spring turns to summer, Ben learns all about the lives of the bumblebees -- how they grow from eggs into hungry larvae, spin cocoons and finally emerge as bees -- and notices what he has in common with his buzzy friends.
