Everyday Books - World Honey Bee Day



Celebrate Every Day With Books 

It seems like everyday has some new theme to celebrate so I thought it might be fun to see what kind of interesting books I can find (new, old, or coming soon) for an everyday holiday. In fact, most days have more than one holiday!


TODAY 

IS

SATURDAY AUGUST 15TH 2020


WORLD HONEY BEE DAY 


“World Honey Bee Day, also known as National Honey Bee Awareness Day and National Honey Bee Day, is being observed today! It was observed on the fourth Saturday in August 2009. It has been observed the third Saturday in August since 2010.” (from checkiday.com)



So that you know, I have not read most of these but the ones I pick seem the most interesting and would like to read. You can probably find tons more books for each holiday but I am only going to pick two books for one holiday a day. 


Let me know what you think. Do any of them seem interesting to you? Is there another book you think would be a better choice?





Title: H Is For Honey Bee by Robbyn Smith Frankenhuyzen

Genre: Non-Fiction, Juvenile, Picturebook, Science, Insects

What It Is About?: “Though small in size at approximately 5/8 of an inch (15 mm), Apis mellifera, otherwise known as the honey bee, is one of the most important insects on the planet. Due to their status as super pollinators, it is estimated that a third of the food we eat each day can be attributed to bee activity.” ( From Goodreads.com)
