Extract from my book, Busy Bee and the Endangered Meadow
In one of the old oak trees a bee hive could be found and Beatriz the honey bee lived here. Winter had been a time for the bees to all huddle together to keep the hive and themselves warm. Now winter had been shaken off they returned to their work of pollinating flowers and collecting nectar. Beatriz, as always, was excited and ready early for the spring when it arrived.
Beatriz or Bea to everyone who knew her, was a good worker bee, and during the warmer months she collected lots of nectar, much more than the other bees. The Queen Bee was always very pleased with Bea as she worked the hardest out of all of them in the hive. Bea enjoyed her work as there were so many flowers to take a nectar drink and collect the pollen from. This allowed the bees to make more than enough honey to keep themselves fed during the cold winter months. During this cold time of the year the bees lived off the honey that they had made and stored during the warmer seasons.

There are T-shirts for children of Alice Wright’s wonderful book cover with or without the story title available from our Teemill site, https://scientistandphilosopher.com/collection/kids/. These are printed on organic cotton and so, are we hope, the lightest of load possible on the environment. You will find out on Teemill’s website the story of this cotton. It does make the items for sale more expensive than less environmentally friendly clothing.
