Dewey Discoveries: "The Case of the Vanishing Honeybees" by Sandra Markle

When we learn about science, it often feels like a mystery that's already been solved. In reality, there's lots left in the world to discover and understand. In "The Case of the Vanishing Honeybees: a Scientific Mystery" by Sandra Markle, you, the reader, are tasked with the job of finding out what's killing the honeybees. Markle clearly explains the life of bees, and talks about the recent epidemic of dying bees. There have been many hypotheses made about the problem, but no real conclusions have been made. Read the book, study the evidence, and maybe you could be the person who figures it all out and saves the honeybees! Best for grades 4-8.
