内容简介

A little girl is on her way to gather berries, berries to make jam when she gets home. A little bee is on its way to gather nectar, nectar to make honey for her honeycomb. Their meeting in the same berry patch shines a gentle light on a common childhood fear from two points of view. This picture book provides a sweet way to convey even to the youngest child the importance of understanding and respecting all creatures.

food to escape a buzzing bee. The book arose from an understanding that bees are critical to our biodiversity. Besides that, they give us the delicious treat of honey!"

The Girl:

I'm going to pick berries, all by myself,

enough to fill the bucket high on the shelf.

When I come home, we'll make a treat,

sweet jam on toast for me to eat.The scratchy branches could scrape my knees,

but I'm more scared of the buzzing bees.

Mama says hold still, they will fly away.

Bees want nectar, so I'll be okay!

The Bee:

I'm going to get nectar, all on my own,

nectar from the vines where the flowers have grown.

We'll make honey when I come home,

sweet honey to fill our honeycomb.

Through scratchy branches I can duck and dive.

It's people that scare me when I leave the hive.

Mama says fly high, they will move away.

People want berries, so I'll be okay!
