Book Excerpt: 
. . .In the words of Gelieu,[H] "in the swarming season the strong hives are almost entirely filled with brood-combs. At that time also honey becomes abundant; and when fine days succeed each other, the working bees amass an astonishing quantity. But where is it to be stored? Must they wait till the young bees have left the brood-cells, by which time the early flowers will be withered? What is to be done in this dilemma? Mark the resources of the industrious bees. They search in the neighbourhood[I] for a place where they may deposit their honey, until the young shall have left the combs in which they were hatched. If they fail in this object, they crowd together in the front of their habitation, forming prodigious clusters. It is not uncommon to see them building combs on the outside."

[H] See ‘The Bee-Preserver,’ by Jonas de Gelieu, translated from the French; Edinburgh, 1829. This valuable little work contains the substance of sixty-four years. . . Read More

3.5 stars. Christa and I didn’t love the writing, and at times it reduces Christianity to behavior. Lily loved the illustrations.

As another reader commented, I also had mixed feelings with The Bible in Pictures for Little Eyes. The number of stories is great and worded for younger children to understand and each story has a picture but I had to constantly leave out parts (and a couple pictures, i.e. the stoning) so as not to
