A heartwarming introduction to reading for kids ages three and up about how even solitary beings need people too, from Jean-Fran?ois S?n?chal and Pascale Bonenfant

Anyone can make it on their own--just ask Colette! She's a solitary bee who enjoys her own company more than anyone else's and thrives on her independence. Colette can do just about anything by herself: day-to-day tasks, cleverly navigating the elements, and even setting out on solo adventures. But sometimes, even the most solitary bees need other insects around--like when things don't go as planned, or when they've simply got a good story to tell. Colette: The Solitary Bee is an adorable, heartwarming tale that shows us we can be proud to do things by ourselves, but it's also pretty great to share our lived experiences with those around us.

About the Author
As the son of two teachers, Jean-Fran?ois S?n?chal grew up around books. After studying anthropology for a time, he ultimately gravitated back to his first love, devoting himself entirely to literature. His stories--exploring societal issues such as exclusion and inequality for audiences of children and adolescents--have garnered him various honors, including the 2017 Joseph S. Stauffer Prize from the Canada Council for the Arts, and a Governor General's Award for children's literature. Pascale Bonenfant uses drawing, collage, watercolor, and screen printing to bring her playful works of art to life. After studying design and visual arts at Laval University, she deepened her love for illustration by becoming a professor of graphic design. In recent years, her work has appeared in a wide range of exhibitions and publications, including more than a dozen books. She lives in Qu?bec City, Canada.
