Chris Packham will be judging the entries.
He said: ‘Not only are bees incredibly cute, but they are also integral to our ecosystem and their numbers are sadly dwindling fast.
‘Getting kids involved in bee conservation is a great way to educate future generations on protecting these precious species and what’s more, they have great imaginations for storytelling!
‘I am very much looking forward to reading all the stories.’
