Book Reviews and Testimonials
Wee Ones Magazine
“An interesting story about Apple and what happens to him once he's plucked from a tree. Go on a journey with Apple and discover ways to help Apple live on. Instead of discarding him in the trash, composting is what this author encourages, as well as planting seeds to grow trees that will create more delicious sweet apples! With bright illustrations, this story is both entertaining and educational.”
