PRAISE FOR BEECOMING SOPHIE: Sophie's story is utterly 'bee-coming"
and is a delight to the eye as well as the mind. It is an effective
way to introduce the plight of the bees as well as the well-known
solutions to a youthful audience. I plan to donate my extra copy to
the Henry Barnard School on the Rhode Island College campus as a
tool for learning about the hives about to be installed. As one who
teaches about diversity, I am appreciative of the natural and
effective way that the author has for representing multicultural
youth and some of the issues international adoptees face in
American society. These complex issues are addressed through this
lovely story about bees and the environment. The book makes a
wonderful addition to your beekeeping library or a great gift to
give to a special young person in your life. It is an excellent way
to introduce them to the world of bees and their intimate
connection to the well-being of our shared environment. --Carolyn

window one rainy evening is far more than she seems. She is
Phoebee, the Queen of the Bees and she carries all the secrets of
their ancient wisdom. She has an urgent message for Sophie, who
adopts Phoebee and her mission. She must save the honeybees
worldwide--before it is too late for them and all mankind. Sophie
recruits her brother Rolando, and friend Sokuen to sting the
community into bee-conscious action
