You’ll meet the Queen, who rhymes off about her job of laying 2000 eggs per day and complains about her sons never calling:

My Princely sons are known as Drones—
Not one of those boys ever phones!

You’ll love the rap about Worker Bees:

Sister
Sister
Sister
Sister
Not one Brother.
Not one Mister.

If your young rapper likes to rhyme, he or she will love memorizing and rapping out these fun poems about Bee life in the Hood!

In addition to the hilarious poetry, each page of the bee story gives background facts about the jobs and importance of each type of bee in the hive. A worthwhile read for any aged kid.
