The Swarming Bees: From Crowded Hive to New Heights
Have you ever wondered how bees expand their colony or what happens when their hive becomes too crowded? How do they work together to decide where to go next? In The Swarming Bees: From Crowded Hive to New Heights, young readers join Buzz, a brave scout bee, on an exciting journey to help her hive find a new home. When the hive becomes overcrowded, it’s time to swarm—splitting the colony and setting out to establish a new one. Buzz plays a key role in finding the perfect location, relying on teamwork and the famous waggle dance to guide her fellow bees in making this crucial decision.
This beautifully illustrated story introduces children to the fascinating way bees work together, demonstrating the democratic decision-making process that ensures the hive’s success.
