Overview

The story of Busy Bees begins with a simple observation: the bees have noticed that there doesn’t seem to be enough sweetness in the world. Too many people seem sour! Determined to change this, the bees decide they must produce more sweet honey. To do that, they need to collect more pollen. Their Queen Bee insists on it, and the bees work hard to follow her commands. To communicate the location of new pollen sources, bees perform something called the Waggle Dance. Yes—it’s a real thing! Along the way, the superstar singer Sting appears and introduces the bees to a brand-new song about kindness. By the end of the story, everyone comes to believe that a sweeter, kinder world really is possible.
