The simple words take on new meaning as the illustrations pair perfectly with their presentation. The illustrations offer a view of bears and bees personified to keep the Child's attention. The images are amazingly precise at capturing emotions that Children also experience. The Still Bee allows the Child to see cooperation in the way bees function. The team work, determination, and motivation that bees utilize is on full display in this book. There are questions as well as problem solving elements included.

It is in Early Childhood that interpersonal communication skills are formed. The Still Bee is a tool in a Caregiver's toolbox to assist with that healthy formation. The idea that we can learn from observing different environments in Nature is a theme that the author embraces. The Child who reads this book will be fascinated by the bee and all it does for humanity.
