Pea, Bee, & Jay

In Pea, Bee, & Jay, a brave little pea, a buzzing bee, and a cautious blue jay form an unlikely trio of friends who navigate the small, lively world of a farm and garden. Launched by HarperCollins in 2020, this gently comedic series from writer-artist Brian "Smitty" Smith uses simple, expressive art and short chapters to explore themes of teamwork, bravery, and the joy of found friendship. With just three issues to date, it has become a warm, accessible entry point for early readers discovering the pleasures of graphic storytelling.
