Bread & Honey Festival - Bentley Hippo Children's Book Project 2026
Hip-Hippo-Hooray! It's official! Bentley Hippo and Sam the Bee are buzzing together to bring children a sweet and sticky adventure for the 2026 Bread & Honey Festival.
About the Story
Bentley and Jaxon's day takes a hilarious turn when the sweet smell of honey leads to a buzzing disaster. After a wild escape from some very cranky bees, they bump into Sam, a clever bee with a big story to share.


Sam swoops Bentley and Jaxon into a sweet and sticky adventure, buzzing through Streetville and uncovering how the Bread & Honey Festival first came to life. Along the way, the trio discovers community spirit, hidden treasures, and a whole lot of laughter - the kind of adventure that sticks with you long after the last page
