(2) K-3 Illustrated by Kyrsten Brooker. Beekeeper Fred's busy daily round, beginning with a cozy cup of tea, makes an appealing frame for the main event: tending his "tiny city" of three hives on his Brooklyn roof to harvest enough honey to share with neighbors. Textured details in the collage illustrations--and a cheerfully upbeat main character--enhance the story. The accurately detailed text is nicely supplemented by clear endpaper diagrams.
