The Honey Bus: A Memoir of Loss, Courage and a Girl Saved by Bees by Meredith MayMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
When Meredith was 5, her parents separated and she moved with her mother and brother to her maternal grandparents' home. Her grandfather the beekeeper introduces her to the world of honeybees. It is a comforting, rural memoir and bees have great metaphor potential that the author utilizes through her Grandpa's voice. Research on bees runs throughout with a somewhat sad epilogue combining her grandfather's aging with the bee crisis.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley. It came out April 2, 2019.
