Ages 5 to 8 Kindergarten to 3rd Grade 10 pages Read aloud

The first pages

In Portland, Maine, the leaves were turning red and gold. Mrs. O'Donnell's old apple tree was so full that apples kept dropping onto her lawn. Thump! Thump!

"I cannot use all these apples," Mrs. O'Donnell told the twins, Ava and Eli. "And I do not want them to go to waste."

What happens next? The rest of the story, every painted page and Buzzby's narration open with a free account.

Talk time questions

  • Why did Mrs. O'Donnell have too many apples?
  • How did the twins decide which apples to keep?
  • What could your family share with others?
