3.0 out of 5 stars A Review of Oats and Wild Apples, July 1, 2005
This review is from: Oats and Wild Apples (Paperback)
Frank Asch is on my entering kindergartener's Summer Reading List and we have really become fans of his. HOWEVER, we did not particularly care for this particular book.

While the illustrations are lovely and classic Asch, the book did not engross us the way that his other books have.

The story is a sort of version of Country Mouse/City Mouse. A baby deer (separated from his mother by wolves) persuades a calf to spend the day with him. After tasting delicious apples from a wild apple tree, the calf tells the deer that they are almost as good as oats. The deer then goes into the 'civilized' grounds of the calf's farm.

Like in Country Mouse/City Mouse nothing is resolved except that each animal decides that they like their native habitat best.

Three stars. Good artwork, but story was average.
