unBEElievables: honeybee poems and paintings
by Douglas Florian
Beach Lane Books, 2012
Douglas Florian does it again! A perfect trifecta of illustrations and poems and just enough information on every page.
I wish I would have had this book to show my student as a mentor text when they were writing their weather poems and including science information on the page with each poem.
Here's a favorite:
BEE ANATOMY
Lovely legs,
Lovely hue.
Lovely long
Antennae, too.
Lovely eyes,
Lovely wings.
But ouch!
How in the end
It stings!
