I. Bee gets tired of sucking up to flowers and likes to play hooky at Venice Beach in sunny southern California with his good friend Sammy Woodpecker.  Safe and high on Sammy's back, Looking cool and hiding behind his sunglasses, I. Bee watches the crane and snake dancers practice T'ai Chi.   Mom told him this mother of all martial arts came from China so he peskers her with his buzzery questions.

 

   Buzz..."Why do they do that?"  Buzz..."What's it like in China?"  Buzz..."Why can't I go see?"  Buzz..."I want to go!"   Buzz..."Can I go, please,please,please?"
