Summary | "Honey-Bee" by Anatole France is a children's fantasy written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around themes of love, adventure, and the transition from childhood innocence to maturity. At its heart are the young characters Honey-Bee and George, who share an inseparable bond as they navigate the challenges and wonders of their enchanted world. The opening portion of the book introduces the serene yet mysterious landscape that holds the story of the Countess of Blanchelande, who foresees her death through the appearance of a white rose. As the narrative unfolds, we learn of her last wishes for her young son, George, to be raised alongside Honey-Bee, the daughter of her friend, the Duchess of Clarides. Their childhood is marked by sweetness and innocence, establishing a rich backdrop of chivalry and enchantment. It hints at looming adventures and trials as both children are drawn into magical circumstances involving dwarfs, nixies, and the deeper connections of love and destiny that will shape their lives.
