Kaia and the Bees / Kaia y las abejas

Written by Maribeth Boelts, Illustrated by Angela Dominguez

Kaia is a little girl, and like many, is afraid of bees. With a little bit of pressure from her friends she follows in the footsteps of her beekeeper father. As she helps him care for the bees they have in hives on their rooftop, she learns interesting things about these little insects. With a few pleasant and unpleasant experiences along the way, Kaia develops an understanding and appreciation for the world’s most important insect, and overcomes her fear to give nature a hand as she becomes a beekeeper herself.
