A garden sparked by a buzzing visitor

Ollie’s encounter with a bee opens the way to a secret garden crowded with insect companions. When the garden disappears the next morning, the story turns to her effort to make a garden of her own. The premise brings together a child’s curiosity about insects and the idea of creating a welcoming place for them. Nicola Killen’s book is presented with limited-color illustrations, foil details, and interactive die-cut pages, adding tactile features to the garden-centered story.

Book overview

From beloved author-illustrator Nicola Killen comes a sweet-as-can-be story about discovering a secret garden full of bumbling new friends, tenderly told and illustrated in limited color with lovely foil and interactive die-cut pages.

When Ollie hears a loud Bzzzzzzzzz! outside the window, she follows a buzzing bee to a bustling, bug-filled secret garden. But the next morning when Ollie goes in search of the magical garden, it's nowhere to be found. And Ollie misses her new insect friends. Can she find a way to create a secret garden of her own?
