Peony lives with her sister, Magnolia, and her grandfather on a fruit farm outside the city. All Peony really wants is to be a bee. Even though she is only nine -- and bees must be ten -- Peony already knows all there is to know about being a bee and she is determined to achieve her dream. Life on the farm is a scrabble, but there is enough to eat and a place to sleep, and there is love. Then Peony's mother arrives to take her away from everything she has ever known. Peony is taken to the city to work for a wealthy family. Will Peony's grit and quick thinking be enough to keep her safe? How to Bee is a beautiful and fierce novel for younger readers, and the voice of Peony will stay with you long after you read the last page."-- $c Provide by publisher. 650 0 $a Pollination $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Extinct insects $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Agricultural laborers $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Child labor $v Juvenile fiction. 655 7 $a Dystopian fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 7 952 $l HQPD845 $d 20240516014635.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012020325.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20220615010137.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20211202015107.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20210105034623.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20201215011342.0 952 $l VWPC964 $d 20200807011311.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=142583B2A49B11EA9676382F97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
