Su pap dice que el mundo necesita abejas y por eso ellos son apicultores. Pero solo l va a la azotea donde est n las abejas. Kaia no. Podr ella encontrar la forma de ser la ni a valiente que siempre dice que es?

De la autora Maribeth Boelts y la ilustradora Angela Dominguez nos llega esta historia sincera y cercana sobre la valent a, la compasi n y la importancia de las abejas para nuestro mundo.

Kaia is the brave type. Like hottest-hot-pepper brave. But there is one thing that scares her: BEES And right now, thousands of bees live on her roof because Kaia's dad is a beekeeper. Her dad says that the world needs bees and that's why they are beekeepers. But only he goes on the roof, not Kaia -- unless she can find a way to be the brave girl she always says she is. Against a sunny city setting, author Maribeth Boelts and illustrator Angela Dominguez depict Kaia's small courageous steps -- and her tiny insect neighbors -- with great empathy and charm. Buzzing with storytime potential, _Kaia and the Bees_ is an honest and relatable tale about bravery and compassion, as well as the importance of bees to our world.
