Hour of the Bees by Lindsay Eager

 Junior Fiction. Seeing family members age and lose some of their abilities can be difficult. It's even more difficult when you meet them for the first time at the end of their life. Carol meets her grandfather when they spend a few months in the summer on his New Mexico ranch getting him ready to move into an assisted living facility. She has an immediate connection with him and is drawn into the stories he tells about bees and the draught and his lovely wife Rosa who has passed away. Carol thinks his stories are just the dementia talking, but maybe they are true!  Such a good story with a wonderful ending!

Recommend: yes
