"BEES ARE DYING!" Doodlebug Pinkley cried, thrusting his latest copy of World of the Weird at his sister Dandelion. His favorite magazine had a lot of strange but important content. This month it was insects in danger. The number of certain bugs, including bees, was falling sharply all over the world.
"It's terrible!" Dandelion replied, after reading the article. They were sitting on the outdoor patio (露台) of Cool Yule's Ice Cream Shop.
"Maybe we could make a bee roof garden, too — like in this article," Doodlebug suggested. Yule recommended making it on the patio, adding a pollinator (传粉昆虫) garden up there would attract bees — and more customers. "Brilliant!" Everyone else responded in a chorus.
Now the problem was how to get the funds. Dandelion proposed raising money by setting up a booth near the shop's entrance to alert people and ask them to donate. The plan was a go!
The next day their friends Bog, Tomiko and Izzy met Doodlebug and Dandelion inside Yule's. Everyone was excited. They made handouts explaining how the garden would attract pollinators, do something to help prevent flooding, and improve the air.
"We should have a bee mascot (吉祥物)," Izzy suggested. Doodlebug recalled the old bee costume that his Mom wore for Halloween once. Over the enthusiastic uproar, Dandelion shouted, "And you'll be the bee, Doodlebug!" "WILL NOT!" Doodlebug shot back. "Too big. We need to stuff some grownup into that costume." But who, then? For ten mad minutes the kids debated loudly.
"Silence, you little noisy kids!" someone suddenly roared. "I'm trying to read about bees in danger!" The whole crew turned in shock. There sat Doodlebug's horrible teacher, Mrs. Noodleknocker. Doodlebug had discovered long ago that she was a World of the Weird fan, but that didn't make her any nicer. "Bees and butterflies need help!" Mrs. Noodleknocker cried. "But a person can't even worry about them peacefully!"
