Author Emily Neye
Illustrated by Tom Leonard
This Step 2 Step into Reading Science Reader teaches kids how honeybees make honey, build their hives, and . . . dance! Buzz-worthy facts will cross-pollinate beautifully with classroom learning.

Step 2 Readers use basic vocabulary and short sentences to tell simple stories. These books are for children who recognize familiar words and can sound out new words with help.
