What is The Bumblebear about?
Norman is a bear with an enormous love of honey. To reach the bees’ delicious supply, he disguises himself in a bee onesie and enrols at Bee School. At first, his plan seems to be working, and he even makes friends with the other bees. But when one pupil discovers Norman’s secret, his disguise is exposed. Then danger threatens the hive, and Norman must decide whether to run away or use his unusual size and courage to save his new friends.
