Through the Eyes of a Bee by William

I flew through the door and saw a swarm of miniature humans controlled by a kind of queen. They sped off to boxes that could open and shut and took out things that looked like stick insects without legs. and took things. They rubbed the stick things on pieces of flat sheet. I whizzed past one’s head and saw they were drawing funny symbols on the sheets. Then the queen moved her mouth and the small humans rushed to the floor. I flew outside and saw this was a whole hive of the miniature humans. (Can you guess what this is?)

Jake’s Story

Jake in the UK has written a novel with wasp characters (inspired by Sting). Here’s the opening:

“Get a move on, Stingy,” said a sister wasp. “You’re in the way.”

I turned my back on her, and scurried off to the Royal Keep. I was determined to see our queen, Vespula. Out the corner of my eye I spotted a group of sisters dancing.  Terror, the queen’s advisor, approached me.

“What are you doing here Stingy?” he asked.

“Looking for the Queen. What are those sisters doing?”

Don’t call them that, for Vespula’s sake. You know perfectly well they’re workers.”

“But Smooth Guy calls them sisters.”

“Smooth Guy is an idiot,” Terror said. “Don’t listen to him, understand?”

“Yes, Terror,” I said and walked off, trailing my sting on the floor. Honestly! The Queen’s advisor telling me to keep away from a friend. He’s supposed to set an example.

“Hey, Stingy!”

Oh no!  It was Skinny. “Stop annoying me.” I tried to sound a bit angry. It’s just that Skinny talks too much.

Why did the indecisive bee cross the road?

To get the other side…no wait…to the flowers…or maybe the hive…
