ReviewsAuthor Eric Blair tells the tale of the boy who grew into a man and sprinkled apple seeds on his travels from the East Coast to the West. Blair begins the story of Johnny Appleseed as a young boy picking apples from an apple tree because he loved apples and apple trees. The reader can almost smell and taste apples as Johnny smells and takes a bite out of a juicy apple. When Johnny grows older, he begins to travel around the country with a cooking pot on his head and a sack of apple seeds around his neck. Johnny's mission is to plant seeds in good places so everyone can enjoy apples. His trees grow big and strong. Johnny makes friends with animals and people as he travels around the country. He is a good story teller and has lots of tales to tell. The years pass by and Johnny Appleseed grows old, but he still travels to far-off places wearing his cooking pot hat and planting apple seeds so that others can enjoy the taste of a juicy, red apple. Johnny Appleseed is a thirty-two-page picture book illustrated with bright colorful pictures. The language is easy with only one, two, or three sentences per page. Author Blair has written an entertaining book for a beginning reader.
