Description

Billie wants to save the planet, and she has a super-dooper new idea: to build a beehive! But why is Jack so upset about her plan?

Review

A delightful new story in the Billie B. Brown series by Sally Rippin.

When the new girl at school Sara arrives, and doesn't seem to be scared of the bees that are in their classroom, Billie thinks she is incredibly brave.

Billie decides to ask Sara over to her house to do their project. But Billie’s best friend Jack isn’t so keen on bees, or that Billie seems to have a new best friend.

Can Billie and Jack work it all out?

A wonderful read for junior and emerging readers about friendship and understanding.
