He includes information on how bees make honey, what a beekeeper does, and products that contain beeswax--everything from lipstick to waxes for buffing surfboards.
Why do beekeepers use smoke machines when collecting honey? Can a bee really sting only once? Why do bees dance? In concise, detailed text and abundant illustrations that range from the humorous to the scientific, Charles Micucci offers a wide-ranging and spirited introduction to the Life cycle, social organization, and history of one of the world\'s most useful insects.
Full color.
