DC Comics writer, Scott Sonneborn, gives readers this graphic novel in the TIGER MOTH series.

New girl, Honey Bee, at Antennae Elementary School many of the students  (but not, Tiger Moth- Insect Ninja and his apprentice in training – Kung Pow) in a trance. Honey Bee, who dresses in black and yellow horizontal striped shirts , is running for class president. She is using a special stinger to control the students until after they vote her into office.

Sonneborn uses insect facts interspersed throughout the dialogue to give his readers who know enough about insects the inside track on the humor. Example from page 16 – “That bee is giving me hives!”  and from page 11 – “She’s a shoo-fly-in to win the election.”
