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.

A Note from Maribeth Boelts
In becoming beekeepers, our family developed an empathy and deep
appreciation for bees. We saw them at both their very strongest— making honey, pollinating plants, and raising their young—and as they were weakened by some of their many challenges, such as modern-day chemicals in the environment, lack of forage, and changing weather patterns. It was worth the occasional stings to know that we were doing something good for the world around us and making our bees happy and productive, too. Kaia and the Bees was written to celebrate honeybees, increase understanding and awareness about them, and, in turn, decrease a common fear. Bees need our help and protection, and we need the bees!
