Join Art and Oakie as they help their friends in nature! This nearly wordless graphic novel for young readers invites you to imagine the story for yourself. In the Art & Oakie Ask series, actions—and comics—speak louder than words.
What's the buzz? In Art and Oakie's third adventure, Oakie befriends a colony of bees only to discover that Art is scared of them. To help Art overcome her fears, Oakie invites the bees to teach Art's class. When Art learns how bees pollinate the fruits and vegetables we eat, what will she do? Can Art and Oakie help save the bees?
ABOUT THE SERIES: In each book, Art and Oakie go on an adventure to help their friends in nature. What makes the Art & Oakie Ask series unique is that each book is a nearly wordless graphic novel for young readers. Instead of prose, lush comic book illustrations tell the story. To read each book aloud, you and your little ones get to make up the story for yourself, so no matter one's age or reading ability, you can speak up for our beautiful natural world with Art and Oakie!
