Apple Books

Last year, Raegan posted with some ideas for some good Fall books. I wanted to add a few fun Apples/Fall books I have come across recently.

Piglet's Fall Day
I couldn't find this on Amazon, which means it is a harder book to find. If you can find it in your library, it is a cute little book about Piglet and Fall. My kids have all loved the Pooh series books when little.


The Apple Orchard (A Visit to...) by Patricia J. Murphy
This book is on Amazon, but out of stock right now. This book has full color photographs that explain a visit to the apple orchard. This is a great book if you can't make it to a real orchard. It would also be a great book to read before you visit to introduce concepts and after you visit to reinforce concepts.



Johnny Appleseed
There are many, many versions of the tale of Johnny Appleseed out there. We borrowed two from the library that were both quite different. I noticed several in Brayden's book club order this Fall. I have linked to all Johnny Appleseed Children's books on Amazon so you can browse through and see if there is one that looks best for your child.



Apples and Pumpkins (Stories to Go!) by Anne Rockwell


I think this is my favorite find this Fall. I loved that it combined the apple and pumpkin themes. It goes through fall activities you do with your family.







The Seasons of Arnold's Apple Tree by Gail Gibbons

Okay, this one is also a favorite. It shows a tree through all seasons of the year. Every so often, a page has a box with extra information. For this reason, it makes it a great book for the younger crowd as well as the older. You can keep it simple or add more info.




Apple Countdown by Joan Holub
This is a fun new book about counting things around the apple farm.

This apple book is sure an interesting thing. These books can play a vital role in the brain development of children in Montessori. Like I recently I got an odd order to write an essay on the benefits of these books though I am nursing essay writer, I was interested in this topic. So I gave it a try. However, thank you for the content. I would definitely add a reference to your website in my essay.

I think students from all backgrounds should acquire help with those burden-infused college tasks. Like, for me, being overstressed was usual when it came to stepping inside the campus. Luckily, with the someone to write my assignment from elite aficionados drawing up my research projects, I’ve managed to clinch my bachelor's in education. I can’t believe I’m about to pursue my dream of actually being a teacher!
