Poor Ant has had a bad fall and has to stay in bed, all wrapped up in bandages. Luckily Bee has lots of ideas for keeping Ant occupied in this classic Ant and Bee story, all about numbers and counting.
Angela Banner first wrote Ant and Bee as a way to teach her son how to read. The first book in the series was published in 1950. Since then, Angela has written & illustrated 22 Ant and Bee books.
I used to read my sister's copy over and over for many years as a child. Not sure what happened to it and I wish I'd have had it for when my son was born. I never read any of the other Ant and Bee books but I can see the pictures and story in my head still, as if I only read it today. Lovely little book and lovely little story!
