Carla Golembe.
This well-written, detailed description of the honeybee is given added appeal by the colorful, full-page gouache illustrations of a girl observing and drawing diagrams of the bees. The six-week-long life of the worker bee is depicted, from the egg through a series of working stages to her final task of collecting nectar. An activity ("Dance like a Honeybee") is appended.
