Brother Bartholomew and the Apple Grove

32 pp. | Boyds | March, 2004 | Trade ISBN 1-59078-096-5 $$15.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Kestutis Kasparavicius. No matter how many apples Brother Bartholomew allows the deer to eat, there are always enough for the monks. A young new brother tries to thwart the deer but eventually learns the value of generosity and faith. This original fable is told in appropriately formal language; the illustrations are stiff but suit the thought-provoking story.
