CHILDREN CAN BE BEEKEEPERS. All they need is the right hive, a good suit and some help to get them started.. This is a really practical guide to beekeepers of any age, but especially designed for children and teenagers. It is full of colour photos showing how to build a hive, how to catch a swarm, how to look after the bees, and harvest the honey. There's a section for parents, too, with advise on how to guide a beekeeping group and keep everyone safe. There are plans included for two sorts of hives - both suitable for children because they have no heavy parts. All in all a truly inspiring book that encourages everyone to look at their natural environment and get to know one of the most amazing species on the planet.
