Description

Patch the Solitary Bee by Ashley Coates is an introduction to the fascinating world of solitary bees. Did you know that most bees do not live in hives and come in a remarkable range of shapes and sizes? This book tells the story of Patch, who sets out to discover what kind of insect she is, while learning about these incredible creatures along the way. Around 90 per cent of all bee species are solitary bees, and they play a vital role as pollinators. However, their habitats have been reduced due to human activity, making them more important than ever. This book not only tells Patch's story but also provides a guide on how to help care for these wonderful insects at home. The book features 17 original illustrations by K J Khan and was launched in the summer of 2021 to coincide with Solitary Bee Week, an initiative aimed at raising awareness about solitary bees.
