An obnoxious drone in a bee hive tries to wrest power from the Queen Bee by scheming with a less-prosperous hive. Donnie Drone  creates chaos  when his underhanded scheme succeeds. Donnie Drone will look familiar. The actions recounted in the parable are recent history. This is a quick, amusing read with wonderful illustrations. All of us should take our responsibility to vote seriously and elections must be fair, not hacked. Go to the polls for ALL elections.

My Thoughts Bee Gone: Political Parable by Connie Corcoran Wilson


A drone bee tries to wreak havoc on the hive and wrestle power from the Queen.  It is apparent just by looking at the cover who the culprit “bee” is, Donnie. 

This graphic novel parallels today’s U.S. politics in a humours and entertaining way.  It reminds of the book ‘Whose Boat is This Boat’ by The Staff of the Late Show with Stephen Colbert. It is a quick read and reminds us that we need to take our democracy seriously and put some real thought into who we want as a leader.  There is too much at stake, no matter what our political affiliations and beliefs are! I give it 5 stars for the lough out loud moments, illustrations, and message.

I received the ebook for my honest review.
