In the honeycomb hives at BeeHaven Towers, Bearnardo the Beekeeper has his paws full with a beehive of busy workers turned upside down by one of the new born "new-bees." Bugaboo-Bee wants to do the bee-bop dance and gather pockets full of pollen like the grown-up bees.
But, it's not yet her time, to bee-buzz amid the banks of thyme, in Mary Contrary's gardens. With a "'buzz-a-whack" and a "zippity-zoo" young Bugaboo-Bee tries to lead before she has learned to follow. Chaos ensues! Will the herb gardens in Mary Contrary's gardens ever be the same again? What must happen before Bugaboo learns to make sweet patience, with contentment, while waiting for the prize?
“Look at the bees amid the banks of thyme. They find there a very bitter juice, but when they suck it out, they change it into honey because they have the ability to do so.” Francis de Sales
Book 2 in the Fable Spring Parables Series explores the theme of finding contentment in the waiting seasons of life, sweetening it with patience, until the “thyme” of honey. Inspired by a reflective quote from the classic writings of Frances de Sales, contemplating the work of bees “amid the banks of thyme.”
This entertaining tale is told in lyrical rhyme with plenty of swing and musical rhythms to keep children of all ages “bee-bopping” along to quality biblical life lessons learned. Also featured in the book and CD package are:
