Based on the well-known books written by Waldemar Bonsels, Maya is a story of a little bee that ‘goes her own way’. Her fellow bees, the batch she was born with, are content with the regimented life of the hive and happily do whatever their teacher Miss Cassandra asks of them. But not Maya! For better or worse she´s too curious and spirited to let life pass her by. If a leaf floats onto the pond, Maya sees a sailing adventure waiting to happen. If there´s a flower that blooms once a year on a lonely hill top Maya mounts an expedition to see it. Her adventures sometimes lead her into trouble, but luckily she has Flip an avuncular grasshopper and Willy her best friend to help her out.
