The sea covers to-day what was once the Duchy of Clarides. No trace of the town or the castle remains. But when it is calm there can be seen, it is said, within the circumference of a mile, huge trunks of trees standing on the bottom of the sea. A spot on the banks, which now serves as a station for the customhouse officers, is still called "The Tailor’s Booth," and it is quite probable that this name is in memory of a certain Master Jean who is mentioned in this story. The sea, which encroaches year by year, will soon cover this spot so curiously named. Such changes are in the nature of things. The mountains sink in the course of ages, and the depths of the seas, on the contrary, rise until their shells and corals are carried to the regions of clouds and ice. Nothing endures. The face of land and sea is for ever changing. Tradition alone preserves the memory of men and places across the ages and renders real to us what has long ceased to exist. In telling you of Clarides I wish to take you back to times that have long since vanished. Thus I begin: The Countess of Blanchelande having placed on her golden hair a little black hood embroidered with pearls… .But before proceeding I must beg very serious persons not to read this. It is not written for them. It is not written for grave people who despise trifles and who always require to be instructed. I only venture to offer this to those who like to be entertained, and whose minds are both young and gay. Only those who are amused by innocent pleasures will read this to the end. Of these I beg, should they have little children, that they will tell them about my Honey-Bee. I wish this story to please both boys and girls and yet I hardly dare to hope it will. It is too frivolous for them and, really, only suitable for old-fashioned children. I have a pretty little neighbour of nine whose library I examined the other day. I found many books on the microscope and the zoophytes, as well as several scientific story-books. One of these I opened at the following lines: "The cuttle-fish Sepia Officinalis is a cephalopodic mollusc whose body includes a spongy organ containing a chylaqueous fluid saturated with carbonate of lime." My pretty little neighbour finds this story very interesting. I beg of her, unless she wishes me to die of mortification, never to read the story of Honey-Bee.

“Even Golden Hair, Cinderella, or Little Red Riding Hood of the old fairy tales have not the charm of the sweet little Princess of the Clarides, whom Anatole France has named ‘Honey-Bee.’ The story is translated from the French by Mrs. John Lane, and will especially appeal to youthful readers. Here is a delightful book for the little boy or girl who enjoys a good fairy tale, and a charming specimen for the grown-up of the style of the great French novelist, Anatole France.” – National Magazine “The subtle delicacy and sureness of the author’s touch and his charm fortunately make here a universal appeal not always granted to his subjects; and through the portals of this story many an American child will enter into the kingdom reserved for the elect.” -Bookman “Full of playful asides, behind which we catch Anatole France’s sly smile and twinkling eye. These pictures should help the translator toward the reallzation of the wish expressed in her preface, that Honey-Bee shall join Cinderella, Red Riding Hood, Puss in Boots, Aladdin, and the rest of that fair company in the affections of children.” -New York Times “This is an enchantingly written story, brilliantly translated, an altogether delightful tale of childish adventures among dwarfs and pixies, full of poetic imagination and delicious conceits, a very lovable specimen of a great writer’s art.” -Saturday Review “Mrs. Lane thinks the ‘Honey-Bee’ will join ‘her enchanting companions, Cinderella, Red Riding Hood, the Sleeping Princess, and other fair ones of fairy land….Honey-Bee is the child of the widowed Countess of Blancheland, who, knowing that she is to die from seeing a white rose on the cushion of her ’prie-Dieu’ – the Blacheland equivalent for the family banshee – commits her child to the care of the Duchess of Claridas, also a widow – in those days if a man wished to live long he had to be a monk. The Duchess has an only son, George, by name, and the two children grow up together, not by an means ‘too good for human nature’s daily food.,’ but very natural, delightful children.” -Spectator “Their adventures together in pixie land furnish good food for the story-hungry youngster.” -Book Review Digest “Lively and informing.” -Daily Chronicle “A delightful book, the pleasantest initiation possible into the wonders and mysteries of the bee world.” -Observer
