Penberthy, John, with illustrations by Laurie Barrows. To Bee or Not to Bee. Panorama Press, 2006.

Now in seven languages, To Bee or Not to Bee is of an unusual genre - the illustrated, inspirational allegory of a worker bee's search for God. Fresh, new and different, it is the story - clever and spiritually sophisticated - of a disillusioned Buzz Bee who, with the help of a newfound friend, finds fulfillment amidst the mindless tedium and chaos of life in a honeybee colony. The back cover features glowing endorsements from name spiritual authors/teachers, including Rick Fields of Yoga Journal, Ram Dass, Dan Millman and Stephen Levine.
