How to bee
MacDibble, Bren2018
Book
Set in a future Australia in a time when there are no bees and children are employed to scramble through the fruit trees with feathered wand, much like the pear farmers of Hanyuan in China are forced to do today. Peony wants to be a bee, a hand pollinator: she's light, she's fast, and even though she is a year too young, she's going to be the best bee the farm has ever seen - except when you're only 9, it's hard to get everyone around you to go along with your plan.
