Book Description

Am I Even a Bee? is the story of Osmia, a solitary bee, decidedly green and unquestionably un-fuzzy. Osmia has always believed she is a bee, (her mom told her so), but recent run-ins with people, and even other insects, leave her wondering, "Am I even a bee?!" Confused, Osmia faces an identity crisis, and she turns to her meadow for comfort. It is here that she meets her new friend and guide Xyla, a carpenter bee who, like Osmia, does not fit the black-and-yellow social mold. Through some adventures and chance encounters, Osmia and Xyla meet a slew of non-honey bees, each special and important to the meadow in their own unique way. Osmia discovers that while fame is great, diversity and acceptance are essential to a happy ecosystem. As it turns out, there is no one way to be a bee!

Book Description

The most joyful emanation produced by a colony of bees is known as the “song of increase”—declaring that the hive is flourishing and the bees are happy in its abundance. Song of Increase takes us inside the world of the honeybee to glean the wisdom of these fascinating creatures with whom humanity has shared a sacred bond for millennia. Within these pages is a bee-centric approach to living with honeybees, rather than advice for simply maximizing the products they provide. Jacqueline Freeman takes us beyond traditional beekeeping and offers a way to work in harmony with honeybees for both their good and ours. “Our way is one of kind observation,” she explains, “where we create supportive homes and fields for bees to live in, as well as tend the heartfelt relationships we form by being together.” Song of Increase focuses on hidden aspects of apiculture that lead us naturally to more sustainable practices. Freeman illuminates the unity consciousness that guides every action in the colony and how this profound awareness can influence the way we see both the natural world and ourselves. Each chapter presents a wealth of information about the life of bees, including Freeman’s personal insights and direct teachings received from the bees themselves.

Book Description

Your Bee-attitude starts with Bee-lieving. According to the laws of aerodynamics, bees should not be able to fly. Their wings are too small and their bodies are too fat to get off the ground. But they fly. If you are willing to bee-lieve that you can achieve and if you are willing to work hard, then you too can "fly." This is the Bee-attitude. Bea Grace Curri uses a clever list of alphabetical encouragement for young readers to develop a "you can do it" attitude. She tells remarkable stories of people who by all appearances "couldn't," and yet who "did" anyway...with great success. If you want your children to turn those stumbling blocks into stepping stones, Bee Attitude is for you and for them. It's bee-autiful. Bea Grace Curri has a wealth of experience working with children as a religious educator and youth minister for the Dioceses of Syracuse, New York, and Orlando, Florida. She has been married to her husband, John for thirty-eight years and has two sons and six grandchildren. Bea approaches life with enthusiasm.
