Julia Dweck has cleverly played on bee words in this book which produces interesting  vocabulary for young readers. Bee is a  charming little girl who is obsessed with bees. She dresses like a bee and puts honey on everything. Her friends become annoyed with her. Beatrice is shunned by her classmates while at a picnic  so she wanders off and finds herself standing under a bee hive!  A drop of honey falls on her, and she morphs into a bee!  It takes her a while to become a bee worker. One day a former friend traps Beetrice under a glass jar and brings her to class for "show and tell." She panics and tries to tell them that she is not a bee. Will she escape? Does Beetrice remain a bee forever?  Colorful illustrations and mini science lessons provide another incentive for choosing  this book.day
