Apples for Everyone is a new picture book in the Picture the Seasons series that the whole family can enjoy. This attractive and educational companion to the best-selling titles A Tree for All Seasons and Pilgrims of Plymouth features stunning National Geographic photography and a stimulating, accessible text.

Apples! The very word conjures up images of fall: ripe red apples falling off the tree as the leaves begin their glorious extravaganza of color change; baskets of gathered fruits at the foot of laddered orchards; the rich aroma of an apple-pie cooling. As school starts again, an apple for the teacher is a time-honored tradition. Apples are coated in candy or caramel to celebrate the end-of-year holidays. They are crushed into cider to keep us warm around a fire as summer slips away and the first hint of frost chills the darkening nights. In this beautifully produced book, apples are more than just fruit, they are iconic of everything fall.

Apples for Everyone is a seasonal treasure that will help to shape a National Geographic view of the world for young readers. This delightful look at the fruit of fall is sure to inspire a rich appreciation of all things autumnal.

Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Though they have little to do with the science behind the planet’s changing seasons, the new titles in the Picture the Seasons series do a fabulous job of conjuring up the sights, smells, and sensations of a brisk autumn. Using minimal text with National Geographic’s typically fine photographs, Esbaum brings out familiar, comforting details of the outdoors—and slips in a lesson or two so skillfully readers won’t even mind. Apples for Everyone starts small with extreme close-ups of buds and bees before wowing with wide shots of apple-strewn orchards and massive buckets of fruit. The writing flows with sensory details (“Your teeth sink in—crunch!—and tart-sweet juice dribbles down your chin”) and works in bits of history, such as the story of Johnny Appleseed. Fun, cozy, evocative stuff Grades K-2. --Daniel Kraus

it leaves the kids with a question about which color of apple is their favorite. This is a great tool to use right ...

September 24, 2017

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This is a book that will have to be read to young children. I'm using this book with my kinders as part of our apple unit. After giving the ins and outs of apple picking, it leaves the kids with a question about which color of apple is their favorite. This is a great tool to use right before running a project where students make there favorite color apple and count when the whole class is done! I'm very excited to utilize this tool this school year. The book came in pristine condition. And, the colors are bright and vivid!

Not a good kid's apple book

March 2, 2018

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

We were very disappointed with this book. It isn't well organized and seems to only make a half-hearted effort to teach anything about apples. It is mostly just random apple-associated photos with brief captions. The author doesn't seem to know much about apples - their lifecycle, how to grow and care for apple trees, apple culture in the U.S., the story of apples, etc. A lost opportunity.

Love the National Geographic books. Get them all!

My children and husband absolutely love these National Geographic books! I think we have them all. We rotate them according to the season. They are nonfiction but use great pictured of real kids, and they’re short enough to be an easy bedtime story.

Apples for Everyone

September 2, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This is a beautiful book that gives young readers information on how apples grow and other facts about the fruit. The book features a large, colorful font for easy reading and vibrant photographs that show an apple’s development from bloom to harvest. It also depicts a variety of children enjoying apple goodness in various forms from caramel to cider.
I would recommend this book along with another one of Esbaum’s book, “Seed, Sprout, Pumpkin, Pie” for the splendid photography and the simply written information about some of the foods and activities many children enjoy every autumn season.
I’m looking forward to reading both of these great books to my granddaughter and will also be adding “Everything Spring” and “Winter Wonderland” to her book collection.

I like this book because of the wonderful illustrations

October 2, 2014

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I like this book because of the wonderful illustrations, how it shows apple production (from blossom to market), the pictures of children with apples, and the subtle humor in some of the text. I have used it in pre-K to 5th grade classes. All have enjoyed it. I like to bring in a variety of apples for students to see and handle after we read it. By doing so, they gain a better understanding of the descriptions and varieties they see in the book.

We love apples!

I thought that this book was really informative and kept my 6 year old daughter's interest. The pictures are beautiful and it's a must have book for fall. I got this book the week we went apple picking and she quoted some facts while we were at the orchard. I also bought the book "Seed, Sprout, Pumpkin, Pie" which is the same concept but it's about Pumpkins. Love them both!

Fantastic book on the life cycle

November 17, 2013

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

All of these National Geographic books are great and you cannot go wrong for the price. They have beautiful photography and make learning come alive for kids. Both my five year old and seven year old love these books and we bring them out as the seasons change to help illustrate what is going on in our own back yard. Your child will not even know he/she is learning!
