Rosy the Bumblebee (Roly and Friends)

A delightful picture book that shows young readers how they can help the sweet bumblebees that like to visit gardens, parks, and outdoor spaces.

Step outside and find out how you can help the adorable animals that like to visit parks, outdoor spaces, and gardens.
 
Little ones will love following Rosy the Bumblebee as she flies around outside, finding wonderfully colorful flowers to feed on and a cozy corner to rest in after a long, hard day of exploring—and more importantly, collecting pollen! But with bumps along the way, she’ll need your help. Will you volunteer as her little helper?
 
This sweet picture book gently introduces young readers to the idea of animal conservation and protection. Bursting with fun trivia, little ones are shown just how unique bumblebees are, which makes them worth preserving. But with plenty of tips and tricks for how we can care for garden-dwelling friends like Rosy and keep them safe from the dangers they may face, no one is too young to start making a difference.
 
Rosy the Bumblebee is the perfect gift for any small-animal lover, or budding environmentalist, and will inspire toddlers to discover so much of what is unseen outdoors.
 

Frances Rodgers and Ben Grisdale are a husband-and-wife duo. Frances is the author of this series, while Ben, who has recently taken up painting, is the illustrator. Together they have created this beautiful and charming set of books. After watching a program on television presented by Brian May regarding the plight of the hedgehog in the UK, they came up with the brilliant idea of making children’s books to encourage them to take an interest in the wildlife around them and to begin to help out at an early age. They have also decided to donate 10% of all profits made from the Roly the Hedgehog books to Project Amazing Grace.
