A, Bee, See: Who Are Our Pollinators and Why Are They in Trouble? Valentina Eade

Amazon Hall of Fame Reviewer Grady Harp said, "Having read and absorbed the very important book BLESS THE BEES by Kenneth Eade, this version that delivers the same message is meant for children and is a very fine introduction to biology for young minds: teach them from the start to honor bees and their mission for our flourishing." From the author and photographer of the number one bestseller on the disappearance of the bees comes a beautifully illustrated children's book. Filled with full color macro photographs, this book explains who our pollinators are, what they do, why they are at risk, at what we can do to help them. The writing of the best seller, Bless the Bees: The Pending Extinction of our Pollinators and What We Can Do to Stop It, was a culmination of gathering news and research on the issue of the endangerment of our pollinators. It was written to educate the public on how important the pollinators are to humans, how important they are to the world, what crisis they are facing, the reasons for the crisis, and what we can do to solve it. During this mission, it occurred to me that the best way to bring my cause to the people was to write a children's book on the same subject. Since it is their world we have prepared them to inherit, and their future from the seeds we are sowing now (and the damage we are doing) they have a vested interest in the well being of our environment. Insects are a subject that have always fascinated children, and these insects are very important ones. It is crucial that they know about the crisis and collectively take action with all of us to help.
