The Butterfly Bee Lady and the Bee (2017) introduces Belliza, a woman who has raised ninety-one bee children, and Bramley-Bee, who becomes her trusted companion. The book uses the bee lifecycle and Belliza’s unusual maternal situation to build a world that is both naturalistic and magical.
The Butterfly Bee Lady — Part 2 (2019) continues Bee’s journey, following the daughter of the Butterfly Bee Lady through her own encounters with new characters. Both books are illustrated by Oliver and carry the same unhurried, imaginative tone.
