Imagine the stifling existence of a worker bee caught in the mindless tedium of life: every day, he helps build the hive, forages, feeds the larvae, stores honey and pollen, and falls into an exhausted sleep. Then the next dayhe does it all again. But what happens if that bee has a little curiosity and a lot of spiritual yearning? You get the basis for this clever, inspirational allegory about living life to its fullest. Illustrated by award-winning artist Laurie Barrows, To Bee or Not to Bee is the story of Buzz Bees search for God. On his journey to enlightenment, Buzz is forced to negotiate a slew of unexpected twists and turnsalways before he feels ready to handle them. But these hardships are exactly what teach him lifes most valuable lessons. As his wisdom grows, Buzz becomes increasingly aware that the only way out is in, and that life is a journey from I to we. What he ends up finding, in the end, is himself. Peppered with aphorisms and laced with wit and humor, this charming tale reminds us that life is too important to be taken so seriously.
