Publisher's Summary
Learn about the life cycles of different kinds of bees in this enlightening book.
As flowers and trees begin to bud and bloom, Nox Ap, the bee mother, emerges from her winter sleep. To the Gitxsan, she is nature’s gardener. Without her hard work as a pollinator, we could not enjoy the fruits of strawberries and huckleberries. Follow her life from the first thaw of spring to the end of autumn.
In the seventh book of Hetxw'ms Gyetxw (Brett D. Huson)’s Mothers of Xsan series, listeners will discover the important role of the bumblebee, the honeybee, and the yellow jacket wasp in the Xsan ecosystem.
Critic Reviews
“Described with delicious adjectives (“pillowy moss floor”) that enrich the story…lushly colored and detailed; the fur on the bumblebee looks ready to be brushed. This great blend of nonfiction with narrative and amazing illustrations will engage readers in the life of bees and their significance to the Gitxsan Nation. A solid general purchase.”—Tamara Saarinen, School Library Journal
