Ten buzzy bees flying in a line, Busy Bee buzzed off and that left NINE. It's a countdown from ten to zero when Busy Bee keeps buzzing away from his pals! And, whenever he zips off, children get a simple and delightful lesson in subtraction. Just move Busy Bee through the book so he can join the others while they rest on a gate, lounge in a flowery heaven, balance on sticks, whirl around the hive, "bond" with a sticky floor, hide in a tree, snooze in a shoe, and dance in the sun. Then, when Busy is ready to buzz, youngsters take him off the page and count how many are left. There's never been a more appealing band of bees anywhere! 24 pages (all in color), 8 3/4 x 8 3/4.
