    Publisher’s Book Summary: Who would be silly enough to steal the bees’ wings?

    Join a little frog and his friends on a quirky quest to find the missing wings.

    “The bees are gone,” says a blue flower. “Will you help me?” Frog thinks he’s too little to help, but the animals won’t have enough food if the bees don’t buzz. Timidly, he begins the search. Along the way, Frog meets a Fox who plays practical jokes and a Know-It-Owl with a Magical Book Tree. Together, they follow the clues until they find a whole bunch of silliness in the forest. 

    Who Stole the Bees’ Wings? is a funny eco-fairy tale about:

    • Working together when nature is out of balance.
    • Bad things happen when you make fun of others.
    • Little can do BIG things.

    Children 4-8 and their parents smile and giggle, reading Who Stole the Bees’ Wings? This playful bedtime story also enchants level 2 readers and up.

    Be the first one on your block to discover who stole the bees’ wings. How? Let your fingers fly (like wings), and click BUY.

    About Dezla Falyn

    At six years old, Dezla Falyn drew all the characters with oil pastels. In her creative flow, she gave all her characters spiral faces—we don’t know why, but we love them. The background art also evolved from her watercolor paintings at six.
