Mu, The Wingless Worker Bee

“Kanatsız Arı Mu” adlı sevilen kitabımız, “Mu, the Wingless Worker Bee” ismiyle, üstelik Türkçe metniyle bir arada raflarda soluklanıyor. Göz göze geldiğinizde önce İngilizcesi size gülümsüyor; kitabı çevirdiğinizdeyse, hooop, Türkçesi karşınızda. Desenize Mu bir dost daha kazandı, kendisine tıpatıp benzeyen İngilizce kopyasıyla uçuyor şimdi… İyi okumalar diliyoruz.

Do we need wings in order to fly through the colourful sky of life?

The hive that was always full with buzzes of joy was very silent that day. The bees had received a letter. According to the letter, the worker bee with no wings was going to be sent away from the hive. However, the other bees were able to convince the Queen. Mu needed to be living with them because he had wonderful songs and great ideas for the hive. What they were going to do was as good as seeing a daisy turning its face towards the light.

And then they found themselves in the presence of the Queen. Yet, they knew very well that the Black Vizier wouldn’t give up following them.
