Bee the Books A Fun & Original way of Reading & Learning For Children

"Bee the Books have done a great job in creating such a child-friendly publication. The colour, the humour and the inter-active dimension all add up to something which any adult interested in bringing young children and books together, in a real 'fun' way, should find extremely valuable."

Robert Dunbar (Robert Dunbar is a commentator on children's books and reading)

Parents who are bored with bedtime reading (get behind me, Peppa) need a book by Debora Tobin that lets little ones have a laugh at their elders’ expense. Bee The Book allows parents to become a character in a simple farmyard story.

Bee The Book: Farm Friends by Debora and Hilary Tobin, is a big, interactive book to share with three to four year olds.
The oval apertures are for an adult or older sibling to look through and mimic the creature on each page imitating the sound of each farm creature.
Fold-out flaps, visible only to the reader, feature big-print jaunty rhymes to read aloud. The strong, colourful illustrations are by Bernadette O’Neill.
This innovative, face-to-face book is also just perfect for playschool and junior infants.

Mary Arrigan (Irish Examiner)

"This is a real winner with my five year old little girl. She loves to create her own rhymes and stories for each animal and will entertain us with songs. The illustrations are excellent, very colourful and interesting, and it is a strong and durable book for kids. A favourite in our house that we will pick up time and time again."

Paula Sweeney (Mother)

"The kids thought it was great fun that the teacher could put her face through the book and get into character. They were all laughing and loved finding the bee on each page. They had lots of fun having a go and begged me to read it again. Lovely colourful illustrations I would definitely recommend it to friends and colleagues."

Emer O'Flaherty (Montessori Teacher)

"I would really recommend this book for children and parents/carers of children, such a magical read and very interactive. I read this book with my daughter Shonagh and she loved it, I think it is wonderfully written and Illustrated, we both giggled and enjoyed the experience of being together and seeing each other and as we know facial expressions and eye contact are very important for children. In my opinion I think this book would also be very beneficial for children with attachment difficulties."
