The Honeybees Pollinate the Avocado Tree

by Harlem King, Lauryn Bradley, and Rhomel Logan

There once was a giant slide that was inside of an avocado tree.

There was a honeybee and its hive was in the branches.

The bee saw a flower and went to the flower and collected the pollen and the bee was beautiful. There was a yellow and black sunflower. It was a Sunday and the bee went to the flower with the pollen and gave the pollen to a flower.

The giant slide inside of an avocado tree was on a beach.

It smelled like pancakes and hot dogs cooking on the grill. There was a huge playground and a swing and monkey bars. It sounded like kids playing and running. It tasted like strawberry pancakes and ribs. The bees could touch the zip line.

And when they slid down the zip line, they felt like butterflies in the wind.

Then, they went to a lavender tree. It smelled like nectar and ice cream. They loved the smell of the lavender tree. It was purple and had yellow pollen in the middle. The zip line went to a pool. They wanted to go on a waterslide into a pool.

SPLASH!
WHOOSH!

The bees ate sweet nectar ice cream that tasted like sugar and honey and rubbed their fuzzy tummies and said, Mmmmmmmmmm. Then they noticed the pollen on their fuzzy tummies. So they sprinkled it on another avocado tree flower. It was vibrant and green.

They knew it could grow more avocados and people could eat them with bread.

They saw students and accidentally sprinkled pollen on them. But it was okay. Because as the students admired the avocado tree flower, they helped pollinate the avocado tree for the honeybees. The boys wore blue shirts and the girls wore pink shirts. They were happy.
