ABOUT

Beloved by babies and toddlers: A Bear, a Bee, and a Honey Tree is now available in a full-length board book edition with rounded edges.

“Delightful . . . if you read only ONE bear-related picture book this year, let it be this one. . . . The ultimate read aloud to large groups as well as one on one lapsits." —Betsy Bird, A Fuse #8 Production, School Library Journal


Just in time for the publication of the second book in the Bear, Bee series comes a generously-sized board book version of A Bear, a Bee, and a Honey Tree. When a hungry, fuzzy brown bear and a fuzzy yellow bee come face to face, everybody's abuzz! Award-winning author Daniel Bernstrom and critically acclaimed illustrator Brandon James Scott have created a rowdy, rhythmic read-aloud that's perfect for babies and toddlers. This epic chase story features Bernstrom's simple language, alliterative wordplay and verbal pizzazz. And Brandon James Scott's expressive characters jump off the pages. A Bear, a Bee, and a Honey Tree has the kind of high-energy and uninhibited playfulness that will have little kids following the action, making their own bear and bee sounds, and noticing first words that are all carefully placed with corresponding images. A wonderful romp and a splendid introduction to visual literacy.

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
