Bella: Shares Her Sticky Plan

When Dr Peta Anteater's waiting hollow becomes awash with sick frillneck lizards, she knew she had to find the perfect medicine to fix their sore throats.

With the only known cure being a secret blend of just the right quantities of four different families of honey, Dr Peta had no choice but to ask a very special bee to help bring it all together to make this perfect, pure blend so desperately needed.

Can Bella Bee convince the four families to put the differences of the past behind them and work together to help the young ones?


This book will help children understand cultural differences. This story is told as a metaphor to read aloud to children and enjoy together. The vibrant illustrations and use of language draws children in to be part of the adventure, gently guiding them alongside the characters to get the message on a more personal level for them, to make their own meanings and take control of their own life situation - in their own way.
