APRIL STORYWALK BOOK: MARIGOLD THE HONEYBEE

Marigold the Honeybee is a heartwarming and educational story about a curious young bee who dreams of exploring the world beyond her hive. As Marigold trains to become a forager, she learns about responsibility, teamwork, and the vital role bees play in nature. Along the way, she discovers bright flowers, meets new insect friends, and experiences a few funny mishaps that make her adventure both meaningful and fun for young readers. The book was written by Timala Melancon, a Louisiana author who loves sharing stories that connect children with nature, imagination, and important life lessons. Her storytelling blends gentle learning with playful adventure, making this book a perfect fit for families and classrooms alike. We're excited to feature this book as our April StoryWalk selection on the Kids Trail at Palmetto Island State Park, where families can enjoy reading the story page by page during regular park hours all month long.
