Description

The many bees include Sipsyrup who is vain, and Honeyball who is lazy. They argue and complain, and their behavior yielded unfortunate results. There is another story happening outside the beehive: the young girl Polly whose vanity about her clothes leads to the mysterious disappearance of Johnny, her brother. The moral as stated at the end of the story is "However young, however weak, dear children, you may be, know that the youngest, the weakest, have some power here to give either pleasure or pain." Also contained in this book is the short story "Hold Fast" by A.L.O.E., which has the theme of salvation by Christ alone.

Author Biography:

Charlotte Maria Tucker (1821-1883) was born in Barnet, England. Her gift of teaching appeared in her first book, "The Claremont Tales," which illustrates the Beatitudes, and her pen name became A.L.O.E. (A Lady of England). Her brothers moved to India, but she remained at her childhood home for 49 years, when in 1869, her mother died and she took up the study of Hindustani. In 1875, she felt a divine call to travel to India where she stayed for 18 years. She carried on the missionary work of teaching Indian women and children and writing stories until her death.
