A city girl is scared when a bee flies into her room. But she overcomes her fear, and the bee soon grows bigger than its human friend; they eventually set off on a fantastical airborne mission to gather seeds and spread them throughout the city. Without words, Jay's vibrant, folksy oil paintings clearly communicate the story's messages regarding friendship and conservation. A brief note on bees is included.
