The "Shown to the Children" series was a popular narrative-style nature study collection written for children in the early 1900's. 

The book "Bees Shown to the Children" is the eleventh volume in this British series. Share with your children the industrious life of the honey bees. Step into their city gates and find answers to questions like, "How do I identify the queen bee?", "What does a drone do?", "How do bees antennae work?", "What is the anatomy of a bee?", and "How is a comb built?". 

This book is a beautiful complement to any homeschool honey bee study unit or as a picnic blanket companion. This is without a doubt one of our top 5 honey bee books in our homeschool. 

This ebook is a digitally remastered copy of the first edition publication. It has been preserved in its original typeface with both black and white photography and full-colour illustrations for your enjoyment. At The Living Books Library, you don't just own a book, you own a piece of history.

120 pages (approx.) with black and white photography, sketch drawings and full colour Illustrations
