One Red Apple

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Karla Gudeon. A single apple contains an entire story: after it's picked and eaten by a child, birds peck at the core and spread seeds that grow into new trees. Ziefert's spare, poetic text directs readers through a rough outline of the basic process. Gudeon's rustic paintings evoke handmade quilts, with detailed borders and textured country fields. A solid autumn selection.
