Learn about one of nature's unsung superheroes, their amazing contributions to our ecosystems, and how saving native bees means saving a lot more than you might think.

They may be small, but native bees prove that you don't have to bee big to make a big difference. This title from our Nature's (Secret) Superheroes series delves into the powerful effect native bees have on their environment. From bringing blooms to deserts to providing food for people and wildlife, learn how these underappreciated buzzy pollinators work as environmental superheroes to keep their ecosystems going strong. Did you know:

  • Bees come in every color of the rainbow, including red, brown, bright green, blue, or all black
  • The bee world is ruled by girls!
  • Native bees pollinate 80 percent of the world's flowering plants!
  • One in four North American bee species are in danger of extinction

  • The Nature's (Secret) Superheroes series—covering bats, native bees, beavers, elephants, freshwater mussels, and vultures—follows a fun superhero theme, featuring each animal's origin story, how it saves the day, and its nemeses. Each book also includes activities that allow readers to gain hands-on knowledge about these animals.
