Making a trip to an apple orchard at this time of year is a
fun family event. We also enjoy
reading How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World, by Marjorie Priceman, as a
part of autumn. If you and your
child haven’t read this book yet, you’re in for a real treat. The humor of the situation of a market
being closed leads to a trip around the world to find ingredients to make an
apple pie. Various modes of
transportation are used as each country is visited, adding to the creative fun.
Taking a picture walk through this book can increase a
child’s anticipation of listening to and/or reading the text. The maps on the inside cover add to the
enjoyment of being able to track the progress of discovering the ingredients in
other countries.
We used the recipe in the book and enjoyed eating the apple
pie we made. If you’re looking for
some ideas for an apple tasting party, the author has included those on the
back cover. This great book
provides a great reading experience!
Enjoy!
