This book takes us through the four seasons of an apple tree, with the great pictures that are always found in Gail Gibbons’ books. It’s a nice introduction to the seasons for my pre-school grandson.
Rating: 5 / 5
This is a wonderful book. It goes through the seasons of the year with the apple tree. There are large illustrations on each page, along with a sentence or two of text. This book is great for those wishing to learn about seasons of the year and also about phases of an apple tree (from buds to blossoms to apples to bare branches and back to buds again). Although I wish that the text had some rhyme or cadence to it, its still a very good book that my daughter asks to have read to her again and again.
Rating: 4 / 5
I found this to be a very useful book for introducing the concept of seasons to my 5 yr old son. It’s beautifully illustrated and the story is quite sweet, although I’m not sure how frequently he will ask to hear it again. It’s not likely to end up on his list of favorites.

This book covers the basics of what a tree goes through every season. Arnold and his dog take you through each season and explain what type of activities they do with the tree. Winter they build a fort around the tree for company, summer they build a treehouse, fall they rake and pick apples and in spring they hang out in the tree and smell the apple blowwoms and build a tree swing. Arnold treats the tree as his friend through-out the book. On a few of the pages, there is a recipe for apple pie, directions and explanations of what a cider press is and does and facts about honeybees. My overall impression of the book is that it is an okay book with okay pictures. If it wasn’t partially educational, it wouldn’t have been rated with 3 stars.

I recently purchased this book for my kindergartener to do a book project. He needed a book about the seasons, and this one fit perfectly. It simply illustrates and tells what happens to Arnold’s apple tree around the year as each season passes.
