Sally’s review

A Review from Sally Odgers

Ever lost your buzz? Have you felt down, and flat, as if everything's

too much trouble? Maybe you didn't even want to do your favourite
things. Yes, losing the buzz in life is a serious thing.
Benny the bee has lost his buzz. He knows he needs help but who has
time for him? Luckily, he manages to find a friend with time to spare.
Just talking about the problem helps, but Benny finds the support he
needs. Slowly, he starts to feel better. His buzz comes back just in
time for an important occasion. Benny is himself again and he knows
what to do if it ever happens again. How Benny Gets His Buzz Back is a
charming picture book for preschoolers and early readers. The
colourful pictures are enticing, and Benny's problem is presented with
sympathy and wisdom. There are no easy answers, but the author shows
how life can improve, with time, with patience, and with the support
of friends. Lost your buzz? Know someone who has? Wonder what it would
be like? Go with Benny on his journey.
