Barry is a bee with a disability. He cannot fly. One day the hive is attacked. He and the Queen are the only ones left to defend it. What can Barry do to save the hive?

I liked this story. It deals with a disability and while we learn what Barry cannot do we also what he can do. Barry is upbeat and positive as he tells us about the hive and life in the hive. The illustrations are bright and colorful. This is perfect for your 2-5 year old. ( )

The Bee Who Was Different
This colorful children's story is about a bee. He lives with his parents and has lots of friends.
The life of a bee is not quite how we think of it. This bee had something terrible happen and he's not able to walk or fly.
He knows what he can do when a bear comes to take the beehive. Like how it shows even though you can't do things everything else can you have special things you can do. ( )

This book teaches us (not just small children) that just because we may have our individual differences, we are still able to contribute in our own way. In this case, the little bee's differences came in very handy. ( )
