An Apple Pie for Dinner

32 pp. | Cavendish | August, 2009 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7614-5452-6 $17.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Carol Baicker-McKee. In this story adapted from an English folktale, Granny Smith has a hankering for pie. She strolls the countryside making trades with neighbors until she's finally able to procure the apples she needs (a recipe is appended). The illustrations are bas-reliefs created from fabric, clay, wood, and other materials; some are effective, others awkward.
