Written and illustrated by Nan Carlton, this rhyming tale follows Bob, the new bee on the block, who doesn’t quite look—or buzz—like everyone else. Will he fit in? Will he find new friends?
Through fabulously colorful, handcrafted collage illustrations, Carlton brings Bob’s world to life with warmth and whimsy, offering a gentle reminder to open our hearts and our circles of friendship to those who might seem a little different.
It’s sweet, funny, and full of heart—perfect for sparking conversations about kindness, inclusion, and what it truly means to belong. A lovely addition to any child’s bookshelf (and a joy to read aloud again and again!).
