The Honeybee Treasure Hunt

The Honeybee Treasure HuntJoin Katy, Cassie, Zia and Luca as they work together to save the planet… one adventure at a time

Eager to learn more about honeybees, the friends shrink themselves down to take a closer look. But when they find a lost bee in a sticky situation, the miniature adventure turns out to be their biggest yet!

With the threat of pesticides and loss of habitat, the group discover how dangerous the world can be – if you’re a bee.

The Playdate Adventures

… is a series of chapter books aimed at 5- to 8-year-olds. Join four friends – and their cat – on a playdate, where the magic of their imaginations makes their pretend adventures come to life. Every story takes the girls on an unforgettable journey where they learn not only about the value of friendship, but also about the ecological issues facing our planet today.

With each title covering a different theme – from plastic in the oceans to deforestation, litter on our streets to climate change, and on water conservation here – this series is sure to entertain and inform young readers. The books tie in brilliantly with the environmental topics covered by both the KS1 and KS2 curriculums.

Praise for the Playdate Adventure series:

‘Every young girl should read this series!’ Amanda Holden

‘An empowering, magical read.’ Herald

‘Free of unicorns and princesses, it’s fun, empowering fiction for 5- to 8-year olds.’ David Nicholls, author of One Day
