The Honey Bus is a heartwarming memoir that is a testament the unconditional love of a grandparent. Meredith’s grandfather is a bee keeper and his lessons about bees taught lots of value insights into life.

It sounds like a cool journey.

A step into history brings out the wide-eyed boy in me. The present pains that mingled with the protagonists life-struggles fit all too well into her archaeological explorations.

I read portions of this book to my dog, Matt and my cat, Georgie. I figured because Cussy read a passage from The Wind in the Willows to her mule, Junia, my pets would enjoy this novel. I loved the book. Matt and Georgie slept through my reading. I guess they would like it better if there were treats involved. No matter what, this is a terrific book.

LGBTQ characters in the novel. Very enlightening novel.

I really like the illustrations. My favorite illustration was when Sassafras had Caterflies in his fur.

thought the book was funny

Thumbs up!

Bethlehem Library Book Club ( a library program) met on 7/10/23 in the community room. The discussion was led by volunteer Rebecca Hathaway for this July meeting. Each person brought a book or books that they would recommend to others. I discussed Yellowface, The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek (by Kim Michele Richardson), and Little Monsters (by Adrienne Brodeur). Individual participation was excellent and lively discussions ensued from the many books presented.

Seems like a romance but delves into issues of domestic abuse and difficult relationships.
