Winnie-the-Pooh: Helps the Bees!

By Disney and Jane Riordan

Learn about bees with Winnie-the-Pooh so you can help them too!

One hot summer, Winnie-the-Pooh’s tummy was grumbling and his cupboard was empty, so he went to find some honey. But the bees in the Hundred Acre Wood weren’t making as much honey as they usually would, so Pooh decided to find out all that he could about bees so he could help them. Being a generous sort of bear, Pooh has shared his story together with everything he learnt about bees in this book, so you can help your local bees too!

The British Beekeepers Association assisted with the creation of this book, so it includes fascinating real-life bee facts, including how they make honey and what flowers they like best, as well as top tips for how readers can help their local bees, so we can all be honey heroes!

This book is perfect for children of all ages who want to do their part to help save the planet. This book gives simple tips for small things we can all do that will have a big impact on making your surroundings better for bees. The book is bee-friendly too, printed with vegetable-based inks on FSC-approved paper.

Winnie-the-Pooh is the perfect character to teach everyone about bees and how we can ALL help them. The BBKA is proud to have assisted Farshore with the making of this book.” Anne Rowberry, The British Beekeepers Association

Since then, Pooh has become a world-famous bear, and Milne\'s stories have been translated into seventy-two languages.E.H.Shepard was born in London in 1879.
