Chicken Soup for the Soul
A handsome butterfly floated by,
Curious to see what's up, and why.
"Little Miss Bee, what is your
name? What are you doing, playing a game?"
...And so begins this enchanting tale of love and friendship, set in the magical red rocks of Sedona.
Bonnie Bee and Benny Butterfly's
chance meeting grows into a lasting friendship.
This friendship evolves, despite
their differences and the wrath of the Queen Bee.
Their precious union results in
the birth of the Butterbee Babees,
a girl and a boy, Bizzy and Buzzy
Butterbee.
The amazing Butterbees inherit the
gifts of both bees and butterflies.
They help inspire children to discover
their unique gifts and talents.
The story brings us hope during
times of sadness and despair, and
encourages acceptance and respect
for all people and creatures.
The artistic mastery of David Michener's
illustrations,
combined with the authors' silky,
flowing verse,
breathes life into this fable's
wondrous characters.
Together they create a timeless
tale that warms the hearts and souls of children of all ages.
