FLORA MEETS A BEE by Morag Shepherd is a humorous and heartwarming tale of foster care, the importance of the hive and the power of friendship, created specifically for grades K-3. FLORA MEETS A BEE by Morag Shepherd is the story of eight-year-old Flora, who has lived in six foster homes since the age of five. One day Flora meets Bee and their budding friendship changes everything. Bee understands Flora no matter what language she speaks or how much she avoids sharing her true feelings. Flora sees the kindness just below the surface of Bee’s rough, worker-bee exterior that most people may not take the time to see.
The study guide includes activities that will help K-3 students meet core standards in reading, writing, science, social studies, and human development.
FLORA MEETS A BEE received its world premiere as Plan-B Theatre's 2019/20 Free Elementary School Tour, serving 15,000 K-3 students across Utah. Funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts and the Utah State Legislature via the POPS (Professional Outreach Programs in the Schools) Program.
