Description/Notes
When Mary Ellen gets bored with her reading, Grandpa knows a hunt for a bee tree is just what she needs. Half the town joins the exciting chase, but it's not until everyone returns home that Mary Ellen makes a discovery of her own: sometimes even the sweetest of things must be worked for. 'Another charming piece of Americana from an artist of rare warmth and originality'.-- 'Kirkus Reviews', pointer review.
