Children's book that is appealing to adults as well. Lily Belle wants to have a garden without the interference of the bees. What' she doesn't understand is that without the bees, the wasps and the delicate balance of nature she can't have what she wants. With the support and assistance of her parents she learns how bees, wasps and insects all work together to keep the world producing and growing. It's a tale of friendship, family, community as they use the local library to find out what is wrong with Lilly Belle's garden. It's a tale of not always getting your own way and of compromise. Sometimes you need to learn and grow in order for your garden to grow.
