Page 3 - BP1B 004 The Bees and Wasps, and The Hornet

During spring, a store of honey had

been found in a hollow tree in the

woods. Both the Wasps and the

Bees declared that the treasure was

theirs. Both sides got in a heated

argument because neither of them

wanted to forfeit what they claimed

to be theirs. When it seemed that

the affair couldn’t be settled

without a fierce battle, they agreed

to call a judge. They brought the

Hornet, who was the chief judge of

the supreme court in this part of

the woods.
