When worker bee Abi emerges from her cell, she needs to clean the hive, care for the larvae and the queen. After completing these tasks, can she fly freely? Not yet! She must build the hive, produce honey, and protect it. On her twenty-fifth day after birth, as Abi takes to the air, she finally begins her new life as an adventurer...until the end of her life. This book uses accessible, beautifully poetic language and exquisite illustrations to depict the industrious and busy life of worker bees. It is these tiny yet magnificent creatures that sustain the pulse and color of our planet.
