Wayne Gerard Trotman is a Trinidadian- British author, filmmaker, photographer and composer of electronic music. Trotman believes that making children aware of conservation issues and the steps they can take to help safeguard wildlife is essential as children are the adult decision-makers of the future. In England, seventeen species of bees are now regionally extinct and many others are at risk. In the United Kingdom, disease, habitat loss, pollution and climate change have led to a reduction of bee populations. The Last Honey Bee is 56 pages long, features 29 full-colour illustrations, and is only available in a premium hardcover edition.Īccording to recent surveys, bee colony death continues to rise with American beekeepers losing nearly 40% of their honey bee colonies in the winter of 2018-2019. "I hope to make young children aware of the importance of honey bees while encouraging them not to harm these important pollinators," says Trotman, who adds that the book also encourages children to plant wildflowers, which are rapidly declining in the UK.
