Un ouvrage riche et léger à la fois sur la société des abeilles
Jay Hosler nous propose une présentation de la société des abeilles qui est à la fois scientifiquement précise et approfondie, et abordable, plaisante, et même extrêmement séduisante. C'est normal, puisqu'il est à la fois spécialiste des insectes en général et des abeilles en particulier, et de la présentation de ces sujets en bande dessinée. Ce livre peut être vraiment mis entre toutes les mains curieuses de ce sujet. On peut recommander en général toutes les bandes dessinées de Jay Hosler, mais celle-ci est spécialement bien réussie : un beau dessin, très lisible, très lumineux, au service d'un contenu scientifique conséquent. L'ouvrage ne semble exister qu'en anglais. Cela peut constituer un obstacle, mais ça peut aussi être l'occasion de s'y replonger. À noter que d'autres bandes dessinées de Jay Hosler ont été traduites en français.

I'm hive over heals in love with this book
Loved absolutely everything about it. Fun, engaging art, excellent and CORRECT biology, entertaining characters which moves the plot and science along, and fun creation mythos at the beginning. But wait there's more! Dr. Hosler acknowledges he had financial help from Mr. Laird, cocreator of the TMNT comics back in the 90's. That's amazing and heart warming, or should I say aorta warming?

Informative, Moving, Extraordinary
I can't say enough about this extraordinary book. Bought it for my bee-hating, bee-phobic 11 year old and by the end of the book, a space had opened in her heart to feel kindness and gentleness toward them. This book presents science info in a highly readable, character-driven form with brilliant illustrations. A keeper and a great book for gifting as well.
