I was given this as a joke, but it's wonderful! Huge amusing cardboard
bee pops out of the center, then there is a quickie overview of the
biology of all sorts of bees including different solitary bees.
No one can claim, as an apocryphal student did about another book
on penguins, that 'this book told me more about the topic than
I wanted to know'. It's only $12.

(Sorry, I'm partial to the cover, a huge colorful painting of
a bumblebee at a zillion times its natural size...)
By the way, who IS Beth Norton, the author? I feel ignorant
having never heard of her.
