3.0 out of 5 stars An outlandish cumulative tale, March 31, 2000
This review is from: Where Is the Apple Pie? (Hardcover)
"Hello, Neighbor," Pig says to Goat, "Where have you been?" "To the bakery," replies Goat. "What did you buy?" asks Pig. "An apple pie," says Goat.

"Where is the Apple Pie?" is Pig's inevitable reply, and so begins this circuitous story. The question is never answered directly, instead an outlandish cumulative tale unfolds when Goat reports that robbers took his pie.

On one page, we see Goat recounting the saga of the pie. On the facing page, we see what transpires with the robbers and the pie. Kids will get a kick out of keeping track of the wayward pie and in asking, "then what happened?"

Gorbachev's illustrations tell the story even better than the text. His robbers are rapscallions, his goat is an innocent victim and his pig is a good listener. A winning combination.
