Description
Hi everyone,I decided to upload a sample page from our new storybook "Lemon trees and bumblebees". The author (Diane Sherrouse) and I hope the book and website will be online in early December. The children's book introduces kids to the magic of pollination. It's coming out as an ibook and the accompanying website can be found at www.thereadingroad.com. I hope everyone likes this small sample page. Bumble bees are my favorite insects.
Please enjoy,
Blair

What I like about your drawings is that they are realistic
and yet have a childlike quality.
GOD bless

How lovely .. oh how I wish we were heading into spring rather than winter right now.
Sounds like a great book, 'the birds and the bees', huh?

Really? Brrrr. I hate the cold myself and the winters have been harsh here the past few years, -30C hasn't been that uncommon. The only good thing about the winters are the dark I think, making it 'okay' to stay indoors and do cosy things .. and it's easier to sleep as well, even if you need an afternoon nap, because it's already dark by then.
What a cute new avatar by the way!

Thanks good buddy, I am glad you like it, I get a lot of practice watching bees fly as part of my job as a bee biologist
