Contents
[edit]The First Book of Bees begins with general information about bees, such as how they look, and then goes on to describe the roles of bees in a hive. It proceeds with large illustrations that show the different body parts of bees. In the next section, it details what beekeepers do to construct and maintain a hive. The book then communicates in more detail the role of the queen, and what other bees do in relation to the queen. Afterwards, there are descriptions of how beekeeping differs around the world. The book ends with the role of bees in the greater ecosystem.
