Synopsis
Maya is a little bee with a big heart. She dreams of an exciting
life of freedom, fun and adventure – the world is simply far too
interesting to stay inside a hive! Her funny attempts to fit in
bring her into trouble with the Queen’s narrow-minded royal
advisor, Buzzlina. With her best friend Willy, Maya buzzes out
into the meadow on an exhilarating adventure of self-discovery.
While most bees believe that other insects should be feared,
Maya can’t help but make friends with Flip the charismatic and
eccentric grasshopper, Kurt the dung beetle and even Sting, a
young hornet. But when the Queen’s royal jelly is stolen, it
will take Maya and all of her bug buddies to figure out who did
it and how to save the day!
One of the best-known and beloved children’s brands of all-time,
the stories of Maya The Bee have been passed down among
generations of families for years. Originally a German
children’s novel by Waldemar Bonsels, The Adventures of Maya the
Bee was published over a hundred years ago in 1912. Since the
original publishing, the book has been translated into many
other languages and enjoyed by children all over the world. In
addition to the book, Maya The Bee is also a comic book series,
appeared in various iterations as animated series and now a
major animated feature film.
