Bookroo's summary

In a sunlit berry patch, a little girl and a bee cross paths, each on a mission—one for jam, the other for honey. Their unexpected encounter explores a childhood fear from both perspectives, teaching the value of understanding and respect for all creatures. Will they find harmony in their shared space?

From the publisher

A little girl is on her way to gather berries, berries to make jam when she gets home. A little bee is on its way to gather nectar, nectar to make honey for her honeycomb. Their meeting in the same berry patch shines a gentle light on a common childhood fear from two points of view. This picture book provides a sweet way to convey even to the youngest child the importance of understanding and respecting all creatures.
