The Secret Life of Bees

The book finally came to life!!!! Since I read the book The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd, I fell in love with a story about trying to find love in a world that is still divided by boundaries of every kind. The story perhaps is so compelling because it is told through the eyes of Lily, a young girl who wants to find more about the life of her diseased mother. This is a touching story about acceptance of every kind. I can't wait to see it!

Sypnosis:"The Secret Life of Bees," based on the New York Times best selling novel and set in South Carolina in 1964, is the moving tale of Lily Owens (Fanning) a 14 year-old girl who is haunted by the memory of her late mother (Burton). To escape her lonely life and troubled relationship with her father (Bettany), Lily flees with Rosaleen (Hudson), her caregiver and only friend, to a South Carolina town that holds the secret to her mother's past. Taken in by the intelligent and independent Boatwright sisters (Latifah, Okonedo and Keys), Lily finds solace in their mesmerizing world of beekeeping.
