UnBEElievables by Douglas Florian -Not Recommended


Florian, Douglas UnBEElievables 32 pgs. Beach Lane Books, 2012. $11.55.  (Rating: G).
A book of simple poems, fact tidbits, and original artwork all about bees.
This book wasn’t working for me on any level. The artwork is so childlike that you might as well have your students illustrate the poems…which I also don’t recommend because the poems are pretty stale. In addition it’s paired with facts that are too sophisticated for the age level of the poems.
EL – NOT RECOMMENDED Reviewer: Stephanie MLS graduate & Author.
