Regarding the Bees by Kate Klise


This is the last of the books in Klise's "Regarding the ____" series. In this book, our beloved Florence Waters (who built the fountain, sink and bathrooms at Geyser Creek Middle), is substituting for Sam N. via correspondence course. She is suppose to prepare her students for a state exam (Basic Education Evaluation), but instead teaches them about honey bees and beeswax. She also provides them with a bee who is actually able to spell. As usual, the students end up learning a lot from Florence.

I enjoy reading this series--the books are written in letters. It's easy to read, and there are tons of puns and idioms that make you laugh. The illustrations are great as well. It's definitely a light an airy read. I'm kind of sad this is suppose to be her last one in this series...
