While gathering berries in excited anticipation of making jam, a little girl encounters a bee. She’s scared but follows her Mama’s advice: “… hold still, they will fly away. Bees want nectar, so I’ll be okay!” Perspective shifts in the second half of the book from the girl to the bee. Collecting nectar all on her own, the bee worries about the people she might come upon. Fortunately, her mama has instructed her, too: “… fly high, they will move away. People want berries, so I’ll be okay!” Both girl and bee successfully gather their goods while defusing their fears and figuring out how to peacefully co-exist. Repeated refrains urge listeners to chime in, while gentle watercolor illustrations extend the mood of safety and celebrate a job well done. (Ages 3–6)
