Henry the Strange Bee Filiz Behaettin

Honeybees, bumblebees, they all look the same, oval-shaped, fuzzy golden-yellow colored, with dark stripes. Yet among them lives a different looking bee with bright-colored stripes called Henry. Not only does Henry look different, but he acts differently too. Henry flies around in zigzags and makes trumpet sounds instead of buzzing sounds. Often being made fun of by Mr. Fuzzy Grumpy, a mean grumpy bee, Henry sets off to get rid of his bright stripes with hopes of looking like a regular bee and fitting in. However, the tables turn when Mr. Fuzzy Grumpy gets himself into a web of trouble. A beautiful children's story about acceptance and embracing our differences that is sure to be a bedtime favourite.




You will enjoy reading and laughing along to this story with your special little one or gifting it to your favourite little person. Watch as they grow enchanted with Henry's world and follow him on his humorous journey of trying to look like a regular bee.




This beautiful story will prove to be popular with children and adults alike, all while teaching children to embrace their differences and being accepting of those who may be different from them. A delightful book that deserves to be on your bookshelves.
