Grandma Saved a Bumble Bee by Martin E. Roberts is a children’s book that tells the story of how much of an impact random acts of kindness can have on those in need. Once, there was a bumblebee who was so hungry he couldn’t even fly anymore. He kept wandering around, hoping to get a bite to eat. Hungry, alone, and almost giving up, the bumblebee ran into an old grandma who reminded him that there were still kind people in the world. Find out how grandma saved the day in this heartwarming book.

This book was a delightful read. I loved the overall presentation; it was very eye-catching. The illustrations were pretty and colourful, while the font was large enough for children to read and follow. I also loved how the author used rhymes to tell the story; they were short and easy to understand. I loved how the pictures captured the different motions and emotions of the bumblebee and grandma. Children can point at the characters, and they can also follow along with the bright illustrations.

I also loved the moral instruction that came with this story. It teaches about the importance of kindness and how even a little of it will go a long way. This book was entertaining and filled with life lessons. It was sufficiently short, with only about thirteen pages, to ensure children do not lose interest while reading.

There was nothing to dislike about this book. It was also professionally edited because I noticed only one error. As a result, I’m pleased to give it a perfect rating of 4 out of 4 stars.

This book is recommended for children between 0 to 8 years. Parents or guardians will love reading this book to their little ones, and it would also be an excellent way to teach them to read and practice reading.

The bumblebee is a messenger bringing the secrets of life and service. If this is your power animal and your energy is scattered, the bumblebee can show you how to become focused again.

I believe that it's important for children books to teach them goid morals. This looks like a charming book. Using rhymes also makesbthe book more appealing to children and the large fonts encourage children to try and read. Great review.

Unfortunately, only people the age of a grandma like the one pictured on the cover are expected to be kind. It's something everyone could learn.
