The joke might be even ‘deeper’ than that, Nathan – it might be an om-nom-de-plume of her real initials… L.B!
Still can’t tell what the heck the book could possibly be about though – even with the um, ‘helpful’ clues provided by the picture and the title.

I’m thankful that I don’t have to read this… whatever it is. A book about eyes and bees?

It’s a book about “the true meaning of Thanksgiving”. Obviously.
From the Amazon description: “Readers first fell in love with the ten year old outcast in Elle Bee’s short adventure, Charlie and the Bee, in which, Charlie was taken on his first “Field Trip” with his new teacher (a talking bumblebee). Next, Charlie starred in the children’s fiction novella, The Evidence, and was confronted with child trafficking, refugees, and a thing called Christianity. Lately, we have been following Charlie on a holiday tour and have been able to see him experience what several holidays truly mean and meet the historic figures essential to their formation.. Now, here Charlie is again, and he has some things to learn about being thankful.”
There are no Thanksgiving trappings, not even hints. Bees are Summer insects, not Fall/ Winter. The cover might be saying to be thankful for the existence of bees, but it says nothing about time traveling to meet historic figures or learning the facts behind the Thanksgiving holiday. The description tells us more, but the cover doesn’t match up to that description.

But it isn’t obvious.

The previous poster is obviously related to the author — RobBEE? 😀
I’m dying here!
“Obviously” was sarcasm. Obviously.
Escalated rather quickly from “talking bees” to “child trafficking.”
That kid’s dead eyes are freaking me out.
