"If You Love Honey is vibrant and engaging with warm, lifelike, and impressively accurate art that remembers the young audience the book is written for. Parallel sections of text throughout the book effectively lead the reader through the pages. The theme text is repetitive and playful, while the more instructional sections are informative but still easily accessible and interesting to a young audience" --Randy L. Seagraves, Curriculum Coordinator, International Junior Master Gardener Program
"If You Love Honey takes its readers on a beautifully illustrated adventure through the intertwining natural world around us. It highlights the work of our bees, linking golden honey on bread to the earthworms crawling underground, and everything in-between. Children will be fascinated by this tale." --Sarah Red-Laird, Bee Girl, Executive Director, American Beekeeping Federation, Kids and Bees Program Director

And I wanted to say "Thanks!" to William Porter at the Denver Post for including me in his Mother's Day tribute. It's always great to give a shout out to our moms, especially our moms who spent so much time reading that favorite book once, twice, three times and please, just one more time before going to bed.

This book looks absolutely amazing, with so much to see in each image. Learning with such glowing illustrations and bite sized facts is sure to entice young readers to find out more. Congratulations on such a beautiful book.
Hello June,
I appreciate you taking a look and commenting! I like illustrating these books written by Martha Sullivan. She just has a very fun approach to telling a story while adding a lot of facts in a down-to-earth way. And I learned so much while illustrating it, hopefully the kids will too.
Thanks June!
