Bee in the Sea Adam Reed

Publisher Marketing: Bees aren't supposed to swim, and fish aren't supposed to fly...that is, until one day long ago, this bee decided to try. What came next is the story of an incredible sight, a little fuzzy bee in the sea on his first flight. With blue sky above and ocean below, this little bee set his mind on swimming by believing it so. Once in the ocean and surrounded by the fish, he suddenly realized he had gotten his wish. He looked around and quickly made friends in the sea, it didn't quite matter that he was only a bee. As the fish gathered around and started to stare, the bee had them follow and head towards the air. This little bee would show the fish how to fly, because just like him, they just needed to try. So out of the ocean they went up, up, away, which is why you are hearing this tale today. Because if bees can swim and fish can fly, you too can do anything you try. This fun-loving adventurous tale about a young bee is a window into a fantastical and colorful underwater world, which he experiences for the first time. While the adventure, twists, and turns will keep readers young and old glued to the page, it's the message of, "You can do anything you set your mind to" that really captures the spirit of readers alike.
