The Bee Tree

I will be using this book for a lesson.

Great story with rich text for young readers. A good friend of mine who is an amazing second grade teacher recommended the author. Very happy with this purchase.

This was such a cool story!! I loved it. It captures the fun and adventure and the love of nature of childhood. I had never heard of finding honey like this. And they don't kill any bees or take very much honey or ruin the hive. They take just a little. So it's not that bad. It's an amazing book and captures an emotion like patricia polacco always manages to do soo well. It is like the emotion is contained in the book like a little miracle. Amazing feat. Great book!

This is one of those repetitive books that simply adds a new sentence each page and then repeats the rest of the story. I started skipping most of the repetitive middle of the book pages. The pictures were beautiful and the beginning and end were happy! Check this one out at the library before purchasing.

My 10 year old & 3 year old love this book. Plus, I like reading it to them. It’s a great story with great illustrations! It’s a family favorite!

Reading is sweet, and this is an adorable storyline with fun art to tell a child this simple message as the characters (and your child!) get swept up in an exciting adventure. We've enjoyed the paperback version for years, and now we're back for a hardcover version. A little girl doesn't know yet how enjoyable reading is, but by the end of the book, she knows! It's as sweet as honey.

I read this book to my kids and loved it! Compares reading/learning to honey. The girl and her grandpa follow (chase after) bees that are leading them to a bee tree, where they will find honey. Afterwards, the grandfather teaches his granddaughter that books are sweet as honey. My kids loved the book and I loved the lesson taught at the end!

Great book! Teaches valuable lesson. Exciting and fun. Great children's literature. Highly recommend. Bought after returned as a library book. I will be purchasing these for my 4 year olds friends. Good for ages 4-8 I'd say. Looking forward to reading more from this author

My 3 year old laughs his head off at the bounding billygoats and the stamped of people following the honeybee to the sweet prize. Unique. A real treasure.

Pictures old style and story very wordy. Not what I was hoping for my preschoolers

Starting with a little girl who finds it boring to read, the story is fun and fast paced.It makes for a delightful read!The illustrations are detailed - this is well appreciated by my son, 5 years old.He wanted a book on bees and I struck upon this! While there is a little information about bees, the best part about this comes in a surprise twist in the end! I loved it. Simply beautiful!

Great story with a wonderful lesson about “the best things take work to get” at the end.

great condition
