Meet Sally, a girl who likes to pick dandelions. But when a Bumblebee flies onto her knee one day and begs her not to take his food, Sally realises how precious flowers are to bees and the environment.
With this new knowledge Sally and her school friends organise a trip to the leader of their country. Once there they persuade her to make a new law to protect the bees and their environment.
Told in bouncy rhythm and rhyme, this book will engage children of different ages in different ways, making it an ideal book for the whole family. It also includes fun facts about bees.
Heart-warming tale in the style of Julie Donaldson and Rachel Bright
Personalised signed copies of the Bee and
the Dandelion are available to buy for Irish or International customers or for

Buythebook website, which is an Irish website and then posted by me the
author.
My inspiration for writing ‘The Bee and the
Dandelion,’ comes from my love of animals, insects and the environment. Bees
and other insects work so hard on the planets behalf, creating pollination of
plants and agricultural crops so that we can eat and view the beautiful diversity
of the countryside.
I wrote this book to show children in a fun
and proactive way how they can play their part in protecting our planet, the
creatures that live on it and in the process, we can all learn to care for
ourselves, each other and the environment. Scroll down to see ‘fun facts about bees.’ Alternatively, go to the ‘Get in Touch’
