Akeem keeps bees! : a close-up look at the honey makers and pollinators of Sankofa Farms / Kamal E. Bell with Akeem Bell ; illustrations by Darnell Johnson.
"This vibrantly illustrated book for kids aged 6 to 10 traces a year in the real-life apiary of Sankofa Farms as a father (the author) teaches his young son, Akeem, the basics of beekeeping. Told from Akeem's perspective, Akeem Keeps Bees! begins with the arrival and installation of a package of bees and follows the sequence of beekeeping tasks throughout the year, as Akeem and his dad inspect the hive, find the queen, deal with a swarm, harvest honey, and prepare for winter."-- Provided by publisher.
