Review: FROM FLOWER TO HONEY by Robin Nelson

FROM FLOWER TO HONEY is a bright attractive book from Lerner Publishing and Robin Nelson.   

My favorite pages were the ones that showed the beautiful close-up photographs of bees. 

Although I also loved the bright orange text pages.  Very cheerful.

As you can see, the text is presented in a clear and uncluttered manner.  The table of contents pretty much exactly describes what's covered.

CONTENTS
Flowers open
Bees fly to the flowers
Bees drink nectar
Bees fly home
Bees store the nectar
A beekeeper takes the honeycomb
The beekeeper removes the honey
The beekeeper puts the honey in a jar
The hone is sent to stores
Time to eat!

Glossary
Index

The text accompanying the above photo is:

The beekeeper removes the honey.

The beekeeper puts the honeycomb into a
machine that spins.  The spinner squeezes
the honey out of the honeycomb.

FROM FLOWER TO HONEY is a book most of us would borrow, unless we had a classroom.  It does a nice job of giving children an idea of how honey gets to their grocery store.  (I don't know where they found that store, btw.  It's not somewhere I would frequent. A bit too rustic.)
