[Pollinator] Honeybee Worker as Heroine

[Peter Bernhardt]

If you take the following link you can read a recent review of a novel in
which the heroine is a worker honeybee.  This is NOT a children's book and
you will see that the reviewer was unusually enthusiastic.

Some readers may want to comment on the artistic merit and ultimate value
of bee fiction.  I remember reading a translation of  "The Adventures of
Maya the Bee" by W. Bonsels as a boy and liked it a lot but this was a book
for children.
