When Grandpa Joe tells Keisha about Great Aunt Bee, who was a lawyer and an activist, Keisha is determined to follow in her footsteps. Forming the Bee Squad, she enlists her friends KD and Paisley to help put an end to inequality. Soon they have their first cause.
Incensed by the fact that her local pet shop is selling male rabbits for more than female ones, Keisha lobbies the manager who explains that he’s overrun with female rabbits. The cheaper price is just a sales incentive. Uh-uh. It’s time to stand up for rabbits’ rights. But mixing up the bunnies has consequences far beyond those Keisha could have imagined!
A funny and timely new series featuring a strong, brave-hearted girl, perfect for fans of DAISY AND THE TROUBLE WITH., MIA MAYHEM, YASMIN! and LEONORA BOLT, SECRET INVENTOR.
"The first book in a funny new series. Themes of activism and making things right are handled lightly, and there's humour throughout. The lively dialogue brings the characters to life, as do the fantastic illustrations."
