A IS FOR APPLES AND THIS BOOK

Brightly illustrated with hand painted wood block prints "Amazing Apples" tells young readers everything about apples from A to Z. Easy to understand poems trace an apple orchard through the four seasons of the year, emphasizing the miracle of regrowth and the importance of sunshine and water. Young readers meet the family that tends the orchard and witness harvesting, the making of cider, and canning of fruit. The slim volume concludes with a brief essay offering further information about apples and suggestions for the use of apples. Some say apples are our favorite fruit - this may well be one of your youngster's favorite books. - Gail Cooke
