Martyn Barr is hoping to create an even bigger buzz with his latest book, published in April 2012.

To Be A Bee is a fascinating insight into the world of honeybees, described by Martyn as ‘the hardest working creatures on the planet’. The 36-page softback book is lavishly illustrated with stunning close-up photographs of bees and written in a style designed to appeal to a younger readership.

The book has been reviewed by the British Beekeepers Association, earning a glowing endorsement from General Secretary and Operations Director Jane Moseley, who described it as the “bee’s knees of bee books”.

To Be A Bee’s production has been sponsored by Whitefriars as part of its contribution towards Canterbury in Bloom. Copies can be purchased online for £4.99 including delivery at www.tobeabee.co.uk.
