+
Less than 200 pages make up the first edition of Bonsels' book. The relationship between Maya and her numerous adventures is at the heart of the plot. Maya is a bee that is born during internal strife, while the hive is splitting into two separate colonies. Maya is raised by Miss Cassandra, her teacher. Maya wants to travel the globe despite Miss Cassandra's warnings, so she breaks the cardinal rule by abandoning the hive. Maya, who is currently exiled, makes friends with various insects and faces perils with them during her excursions. The book's conclusion sees Maya captured by hornets, sworn enemies of the bees.
