Take to the sky with Apis, one honeybee, as she embarks on her journey through life! Now available in paperback. An Orbis Pictus Honor Book Selected for the Texas Bluebonnnet Master List Finalist for the AAAS/Subaru SB&F Prize for Excellence in Science Books A Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books Blue Ribbon Book A tiny honeybee emerges through the wax cap of her cell. Driven to protect and take care of her hive, she cleans the nursery and feeds the larvae and the queen. But is she strong enough to fly? Not yet! Apis builds wax comb to store honey, and transfers pollen from other bees into the storage. She defends the hive from invaders. And finally, she begins her new life as an adventurer. The confining walls of the hive fall away as Apis takes to the air, finally free, in a brilliant double-gatefold illustration where the clear blue sky is full of promise-- and the wings of dozens of honeybees, heading out in search of nectar to bring back to the hive. Eric Rohmann's exquisitely detailed illustrations bring the great outdoors into your hands in this poetically written tribute to the hardworking honeybee. Award-winning author Candace Fleming describes the life cycle of the honeybee in accessible, beautiful language. Similar in form and concept to the Sibert and Orbis Pictus award book Giant Squid, Honeybee also features a stunning gatefold and an essay on the plight of honeybees.

A sequel to Encyclopedia of Extinct Animals and Encyclopedia of Endangered Animals, this large format encyclopedia focuses on the world's largest group of animals--insects. The third publication in the series Large Encyclopedia of Animals with stunning realistic full-page illustrations introduces the wonderful world of insects, oft-unnoticed creatures without which there would be no life on our planet. It's written by leading Czech entomologist Jiří Kolibáč and illustrated by Pavel Dvorský and his wife Pavla Dvorská. Insects are everywhere around us, a part of our everyday lives. Did you know that insects are the world's largest group of animals? And that we find them in arid deserts and meadows in bloom, in deep forest and freshwater pools, in dark caves and on the surface of the ocean? Read about complex rituals of courtship, touching care for offspring, organization of insect states, wars over food sources, plus scents, colorful wings and sharp mandibles. As you learn about the largest and smallest of them, you will begin to realize how important insects are--for humankind and for all life on our planet. On 96 pages this book will take you into the realm of tiny creatures whose behavior, shapes, and colors will surprise you with their complexity.
