Ms. Ladybug and Mr. Honeybee: A Love Story at the End of Time

Ms. Ladybug and Mr. Honeybee: A Love Story at the End of Time tells the story of a ladybug and a honeybee who find each other after losing their entire families to the poisonous fogs the humans are spraying. The unlikely duo pursues a safe haven from the poisonous fog and are aided by lightning bugs, a mysterious dragonfly, and even cockroaches along the adventure of a lifetime. They encounter doubting ticks, denying termites, and a slug desperately resigned to his fate along their way, but they never give up in their seemingly hopeless quest."An unlikely, sweet, love story. Inspiring and thought-provoking. Beatrix Potter meets Edward Abbey. A charming tale for the current times."Sara C. Roethle, author of the Xoe Meyers Fantasy Series."Tenderly told and beautifully illustrated, Ms. Ladybug and Mr. Honeybee gently carries any child or adult reader into the territory of what all humans of all ages already knowthe painful disappearance of species, including our own. I urge all parents to read it and share it with their children. If your child is even slightly aware of our predicament, this book offers a superb springboard for discussing it with them." Carolyn Baker, Ph. D., author of Love in the Age of Ecological Apocalypse: Cultivating the Relationships we Need to Thrive, and co-author with Guy R. McPherson of Extinction Dialogs: How to Live with Death in Mind"I'd recommend this book to anyone facing the cruelties of an uncaring world. If you are a parent with young children who are trying to sort out the facts of death and how we all die, this book explains in a delicate yet honest way that we are all on a journey. If you are an adult (with or without children) and you are trying to make sense of what is happening in our world, you should read this."Daniel Kinch, activist, writer, performance artist, and radio producer and commentator."Through timeless lessons of love, empathy and valuing our natural world, Ms. Ladybug and Mr. Honeybee proves that imagination sings best when it brings us closer to reality."
