Written and Illustrated by Alison Jay
A well-done wordless picture book about a bee and the girl who saved it. The little bee flies into her open bedroom window and is so tired. She looks up how to care for it and soon the bee is feeling better. She sets it free and watches it fly away.
A rain storm comes and the bee is back at the window, shivering. The girl lets the bee back in and they become friends. You can see the bee getting bigger and how a trapped animal must feel when it’s not where it should be.
