The Beeman

40 pp. | Barefoot | March, 2008 | Trade ISBN 978-1-84686-146-8 $16.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Valeria Cis. The narrator's grandpa, also known as "the Beeman," carefully tends his backyard hives, the denizens of which readers meet throughout the course of the story. The text's verse follows a House-That-Jack-Built rhythm. Extensive back matter describes in detail the information introduced more generally in the main text. Cheerful acrylic illustrations provide additional energy and help demonstrate the story's facts.
