2018 School Spending Survey Report
Let’s Be Bees
COPY ISBN
PreS-Gr 1–Father and child cycle through funny, imaginative leaps to be buzzing bees, chirping birds, rustling trees, and more. Harris (Have You Ever Seen a Flower) works with furious crayonlike scribbles to depict a parent and child doing call-and-response: “Let’s be bees” is followed by buzzing, and “let’s be birds” is followed up with chirps. Despite the meta indicators (they are holding the same book readers are reading), there is no “what does it mean” to this riot of inviting, imitable sound effects and scratched-out, colorful scenes. The ebullience pours out from every page, and read-aloud sessions may never be the same.
VERDICT For big groups or just two reading, this book leaves one with the lingering feeling that this is a work to be shared and reshared.
