Big ideas for curious minds are simply explained in this fascinating book about the secrets of bees.

**Winner of The Children's Wainwright Prize for Non-Fiction 2025**

Bees are incredible! There are so many different kinds found all over the world, from honeybees to diggers, leafcutters, and even meat-eating vulture bees.

Discover how a bee's eyes see the world in a unique way, how bees pollinate plants, how they communicate with a waggle dance, and how without bees, the world would be a very different (and much less wonderful) place.

  • The first in a series of illustrated single-subject STE(A)M books for children aged 7-10, exploring some of the universe's most fascinating subjects.
  • Created in consultation with Professor Beverley Glover and Dr Sally Lee of the Cambridge University Botanic Garden.
  • Written in accessible, bitesize chunks and filled with bright, colourful illustrations on every page.
