A 2026 CBCA NOTABLE BOOK OF THE YEAR FOR OLDER READERS

SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2026 INDIE BOOK AWARD - YOUNG ADULT

SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2026 PRIME MINISTER'S LITERARY AWARD FOR YOUNG ADULT LITERATURE

A beautifully written verse novel that will resonate with younger teen readers who are beginning to understand themselves and the changing world they live in.

Fourteen-year-old Nate has just moved back to Australia and is finding it hard to navigate a new city, school and changed home life. His next-door neighbour, Luna, is dealing with her own issues: a viral video, friends who have dropped her, and a subsequent anxiety disorder.

When a swarm of 20,000 bees unexpectedly settle in the walls of Nate's family's house, Nate and Luna come together to save the hive, befriending local beekeeper Tyler. Over the course of one summer, their loyalties will be tested and their lives will be forever changed.

A topical, hopeful and authentic coming-of-age story that will captivate young teen readers, from multi-award-winning children's author Pip Harry.

'Touching on timely topics, it will have teens buzzing. Pun intended' THE AUSTRALIAN WOMEN'S WEEKLY
