Confessions of a Bad Beekeeper

WHAT NOT TO DO WHEN KEEPING BEES (WITH APOLOGIES TO MY OWN)
Bill Turnbull

A madcap and instructive account of the beekeeping life Appealing illustrations reveal the inner workings of beehives Beekeeping is on the rise everywhereand newly legalized in New York Citys five boroughs and other municipalities around the U.S. The ongoing risk of mass bee die-offs and the importance of pollinators are hot topics

The hilarious, sometimes disastrous, and always engrossing story of BBC journalist Bill Turnbulls accidental love affair with beeswhich doubles as a guide for new beekeepers
Bill Turnbull had no intention of becoming a beekeeper. But when an advertisement for beekeeping classes appeared in the family vets office shortly after a swarm of bees landed in Bills suburban backyard, it seemed to be a sign. Beekeeping turned out to be an even stickier operation than Bill expected, and he quickly learned that being enthusiastic about something doesnt necessarily make you a virtuoso. Full of laugh-out-loud antics, lessons learned the hard way, and a passion for the beauty and importance of the infuriating, fascinatingand increasingly threatenedhoneybee, Confessions of a Bad Beekeeper is both an introduction to the world of backyard beekeeping and a story about the transformative power of doing what you loveeven if youre a bit bad at it. What a fabulous, truthful book from a man who I am sure is a much better beekeeper than he claims to be. Smallholder (UK)

This easy and enjoyable approach enables your baby to: Participate in family meals right from the start Develop hand-eye coordination and chewing skills Learn to love a variety of foods and to enjoy mealtimes.
It sounds like common sense: After all, would you want to be strapped into a high chair and force-fed spoon after spoon of bland vegetables? Its surely much more exciting to be able to exercise a bit of control over your diet. The Guardian

How to Be a Sister
A LOVE STORY WITH A TWIST OF AUTISM
Eileen Garvin
Growing up with her sister Margaret, who was diagnosed with autism at age 3, was the defining influence of Eileen Garvins childhood.

In this deeply felt, impeccably written memoir, Garvin brings a new voice to literature on autismthat of an adult sibling trying to reconnect with her older sisterand finds humor, wisdom, and love in the most unexpected of ways.
A marvelous, harrowing, life-affirming book. In looking to forge a meaningful relationship with her severely autistic sister, Eileen Garvin finds a simpler way of being in, and extending, every moment. Isnt that what were all after? I loved this book. And boy, can she write! Abigail Thomas, author of A Three Dog Life: A Memoir Garvins storytelling abilities are strong, and her fierce, protective love for Margaret, whom she brings to stinging life on the page, gives this book real power.
