Meet Mac, Milton, Jonathan and Granny. The apple
suitcase introduces the science, folklore and taste of this popular
and healthy fruit. For example, the children learn that in ancient
Greece tossing an apple to a girl was a proposal and catching
it an acceptance. Of course the story of Johnny Appleseed is told.
The suitcase is packed with apple art, including a rosy-cheeked
apple doll.
At the hour's end, everyone draws apple pictures and makes an apple book.
Ages preschool and up.
