Ojie the Honeybee: an allegory - Hardcover

by G. Ryan Ansin (Author), Toby Mikle (Illustrator)

Ojie The Honeybee is an allegory about a young female honeybee who has learned from her family how to care for her community through the delivery of essential oils in their honey. An overworked hive is starving for a remedy, but the key ingredient is guarded by territorial hornets across a river dividing the city. Much like navigating the outcomes of the United States' destructive, longstanding prohibition of some plant medicines, young Ojie must outthink misguided foes to save her hive and eventually communities well beyond.
