PS
A child documents, through the seasons, his observations of the "pie" tree in the backyard. Each page concludes with a disappointed "But no pie." Until "at last Dad says it's time for us to pick cherries." As they make the pie, Ehlert cleverly incorporates a recipe into the pictures devoted to its assembly--but no homemade endeavor could match the delectable design of these pages.
