Bella Helps Increase Pollination
Bella is a bright little bee who loves flying around her garden drinking sweet nectar from flowers. When she discovers the flowers are dying, she wants to help. But how can a bumble bee help a whole garden?
Bella Helps Increase Pollination is the sixth in a series of children’s picture books written to support the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.
With fantastic, colourful animal characters, the stories show children how helping each other and their environment can be lots of fun! The books are suitable for use at home or in the classroom and include questions for discussion on the topics raised – a useful supplement for teachers and parents.

Just as all the parks in the David Bellamy scheme are doing!”
