The Danger of of Small Things by Caryl Lewis
The Danger of of Small Things by Caryl Lewis
The whole world rested on a single bee’s wings…until that last honeybee died. Now, famine and war rage across the land. People are no longer allowed to read or create art. They are forbidden to believe in the existence of love. Jess has been taken from her home to live in a government dormitory, where they are forced to pollinate crops by hand with brushes. But unlike the others, Jess knows how to read and paint—and she knows that brushes aren’t meant for pollinating. She knows there is something horribly wrong with this system built on the hard labor of young girls, a system that forces them to marry and have children as soon as they are able. With smuggled paints and brush in hand, can Jess inspire a revolution?
