Liam and the Bee

By Enrique Figueroa

What would it feel like to be a bee?

One morning, while walking a sun-warmed trail, a curious boy named Liam watches a single bee moving from flower to flower with perfect certainty. He has just one question: What would it feel like to be you?

And just like that - he is.

Suddenly Liam sees through a thousand eyes, each one showing a color he has never seen before. He feels the warmth rising from the earth. He tastes the air, full of clover and cold stone and the sweetness of a flower just ahead. He moves with other bees the way a song moves - each one part of something none of them could make alone.

Then he is Liam again, sitting in the warm dust of the path. But something has opened inside him. The world, he discovers, is so much bigger than he thought.

Liam and the Bee is a lyrical, wonder-filled picture book for ages 4-7 that invites young readers to slow down, look closer, and feel the extraordinary beauty hiding in an ordinary morning.

Gorgeous, immersive storytelling that reads aloud beautifullySparks curiosity about insects, nature, and the natural worldA perfect bedtime or storytime read for little explorersIntroduces concepts of empathy, perspective, and wonder without preaching

Perfect for fans of The Very Hungry Caterpillar, The Honey Bee, and Over and Under the Pond.
