Where would we be without farms? Bobbie Kalman takes you on a tour of the farm in four exciting books celebrating farming, livestock, crops, and the people who make it all happen. These simple but comprehensive books feature captivating full-color pictures and illustrations that help explain: -- the necessity of farms -- the wide variety that exist -- farm animals -- the farmer's busy timetable -- farming techniques, tools, and powerful machinery -- environmental concerns -- simple recipes Bees are essential for the production of honey and wax and to orchard farmers for pollinating plants. Hooray for Beekeeping! takes a look at the many aspects of "apiculture" including: -- bee hierarchies and the roles of different bees in the hive -- the anatomy of a bee and how it stings -- pollination and how bees produce honey -- how beekeepers construct apiary hives to raise bees -- the equipment used in caring for hives and harvesting honey -- clothing that protects them from being stung -- how honey and wax are processed into products to be sold -- how to make Sweet and Sticky Apple Sandwiches and Honey Circles |
