Book Synopsis

From beloved author-illustrator Nicola Killen comes a sweet-as-can-be story about discovering a secret garden full of bumbling new friends, tenderly told and illustrated in limited color with lovely foil and interactive die-cut pages.

When Ollie hears a loud Bzzzzzzzzz! outside the window, she follows a buzzing bee to a bustling, bug-filled secret garden. But the next morning when Ollie goes in search of the magical garden, it's nowhere to be found. And Ollie misses her new insect friends. Can she find a way to create a secret garden of her own?
