Fly away with Beebee on a cosmic adventure no bee has ever buzzed before. Beebee, a young bumblebee, has not yet learned how to land. She believes her brakes are broken, or worse, she might not have any brakes at all!
Nervous about crashing in front of her friends, Beebee flies away from her hive to find a home where she never has to land again.
Beebee buzzes through a forest, surfs on the wind, rides on top of a pelican, grabs a seat on an airplane, hitchhikes on an alien spaceship, and floats to the moon. But bees that fly must also land. With a little practice, Beebee builds the confidence she needs to overcome her fears.
Join Beebee on a whirlwind journey to the moon and back to see a little bumblebee find the courage she needs to bloom.
Bees Don't Have Brakes combines humor with social and emotional learning themes that encourage young readers to accept themselves for exactly who they are, including all their quirks. Beebee does not give up on herself, and even though she wants to run away from her problems, she learns that with a little practice, she can do hard things.
This book strives to help children believe in themselves through a fun-filled journey that is sure to capture readers' imaginations and hearts. Beebee is never truly alone, as her mom follows her to the moon and back, making sure she stays safe while allowing her to develop important life skills on her own. Still, the humor is never very far away.
