(4) K-3 Illustrated by Sarah McMenemy. After his beekeeper aunt tells Lionel that some bees died over the winter, he gets the idea to relocate the rest to his Paris apartment building's rooftop gardens. Lionel's narration is mainly expository, but readers will cheer as he convinces his neighbors--an effort that McMenemy cleverly shows in a cross-section watercolor painting of the six-story building. Includes a note on urban beekeeping.
