This is the bee box, made of painted
wood, that stands in the shade of the yard...

Using the cumulative format of This Is the House That Jack Built, this story follows a family as it maintains a handcrafted bee box in their yard and uses the products that come from it. Each family member does his or her part: the dad is the amateur beekeeper, the mom makes candles using the beeswax from bee box, and the grandma sweetens the children’s breakfast yogurt with honey.
