Illustrated by
Doug Chayka.
Published spring 1998. One sun-filled spring morning a young girl accompanies her grandfather "past the barn, the pond, the trees... and into the bee yard." The two tend to stacks of wooden hives, dislodging a swarm of Grandpa's pollen-laden honeybees. Light-filled oil paintings, rich in golden hues, complete the lyrical text; together, they capture a loving intergenerational story.
