Book Description
In Spite of Killer Bees is a novel about not giving in and not giving up. Aggie and her two sisters have had to move to the small village that had been their father’s childhood home. Their mother is long gone, and their father – who’d been in and out of prison – has died. Although the village holds little charm for the girls, they have hopes. It seems that their late grandfather has made them heiresses. In the small, judgmental village, Aggie must fight to keep her diminishing family together. By refusing to abandon those she loves and comes to love, she risks more than her happiness.

Book Description
Africanized honeybees were created when some African honeybees escaped a research area in Brazil. They then bred with local European honeybees, and their offspring inherited some pretty scary traits. Now these killer bees have migrated to the United States, and readers may even encounter them! Information about the aggressive nature of these stinging creatures can help readers stay safe if they find themselves near a hive. Full-color photographs show swarming behavior and what venomous stingers look like up close, since it’s ill advised for readers to get near them in real life!
