About this audiobook
Excerpt: "The bees know this, and wherever you see the morning-glories you will see their little winged friends Very many flowers provide honey for the insects, and it is fortunate for us that they do; for if they did not, we should see no butterflies and have no honey, for butterflies and bees cannot live without the honey the flowers give them Flower honey has a special name; we often call it nectar, for a good reason which I mean to tell you another time The places where the nectar is stored are the nectar holders, or nectaries. It must be a fine thing to go to a flower and take a drink of honey whenever you wish; but what will you say when I tell you the bees get bread as well as honey from the flowers?"
