Benedict, the bear, started his mornings with the bees delivering jars of honey. He followed a routine of eating breakfast, cooking, knitting, and running errands, and he followed it every day. Life was cozy for him until the bees went on strike one day. Life of a bear without honey! Oops, unimaginable, poor Benedict. He feels hopeless. One day, a little bee told him about their reason for the strike - unrecognized hard work and poor working conditions. But the bear had never thought about anything other than enjoying honey. So now Benedict did something about it. Did he get back to his daily routine?

We picked this book because bees are our favorites for their values and impact on our environment. Please Please the Bees is a delightful read that teaches the values we always learned from these tiny majestic creatures. In addition, it helps children to respect and value nature. The illustrations are classic-styled and complement the story beautifully.
Please Please the Bees is a perfect value book and a must-have in every little one’s library.

Benedict the bear is a fan of routine. A big part of that routine revolves around the three jars of honey he receives daily. But when the bees go on strike, Benedict is forced to find a way to help them and get his honey back!
I think this book could be a great way to introduce the topic of bees and environmentalism. For lower grades, a teacher can discuss the theme of respect that the bear learns to give the bees.

This is a great story to read to the students! Mostly for the lesson within the story! The Bear in the story learns not to take the bees who do so much for him for granted.
