I like the rhyme and repetition in the book and the little reminders from the beekeeper on some pages. An informative and educational book that is also fun and entertaining to read. Another 5 star reviewer says this:What a cute little story about a bee; I love the illustration throughout the book. As it helps guide you through the bee's story. I loved how focused Bee was during his mission and how you could encourage him with the little messages along with the book--helping you to remember what Bee was saying as he buzzed by.

Hello, I'm Carrie Hyatt, and I'm so glad to have the privilege of sharing my stories with you. My mission is to create teachable moments that touch and bond those reading my books with those who actively listen. Readers will find something deeper to discuss and something special to learn not just from my stories, but from listening to and interacting with one another. I've always had a passion for writing and for creating teachable moments with children through my written work. My passion for teaching children graduated into homeschooling my own kids and running a homeschool group that grew to nearly 50 families and over 100 kids. I wrote curriculum and devotionals for all kinds of educational purposes for kids of all ages. Many of my children's stories were written during those precious years. I wrote, Spider!, Snake!, and Bee! from some of my own experiences dealing with fear and remembering my mom's techniques to help me cope. As a child, I used to get the heebeegeebees, and I became speechless at the sight of any spider. My fearless mom was always there to rescue me. She was very patient, creative, and careful with me and my siblings whenever we became fearful for any reason. I believe the Shout Fear Out series will help equip people both young and old to conquer some of their fears through laughter and meaningful interaction. I invite you to find something deeper to discuss and something special to learn not just from my stories, but from listening to and interacting with one another. Stories available now are: Spider!, Snake!, Bee!, & Aria Aardvark Likes Ants (great if you have a picky eater!)
