How Do Apples Grow?

We actually used this neat book as part of our science curriculum with our homeschool. It is loaded with vivid pictures and awesome facts about apples. The process from start to finish is covered right in these pages in a way that really makes learning fun. I appreciate that!!!!!

My 3.5 year old loves this book! His preschool teachers were so impressed he knew all the flower parts including stamens. Excellent diagrams and descriptions of how a flower works for kids.

Great book. Very informative actually. My son is a little young to understand what the book was about, but I look forward to even still reading it with him as he grows.

Perfect nonfiction book for my K class. Great pictures!!

I purchased this book to supplement what my school library had for my recent "Apple Theme" week. The pictures were really good & although I had to skip some of the text for my students (Special Ed 3,4 & 5 year olds) they seemed to enjoy hearing about it. From looking at the pictures we got some good ideas for apple "projects" we could do at school (painting pictures of the inside (white) and outside (red) of apples), cutting apples apart - both horizontally & vertically so they could see, first-hand, the arrangement of the seeds & making apple prints of this, etc. A really good (non-fiction) addition for my apple theme week.

Good book for explaining how apples are grown to the kiddos. It’s a little advanced for the young kids.

This is a wonderful book to teach any interested children about the new heirloom apple trees in my orchard.Information is concise & artwork is pleasant!

Very good book

My 3 year old got to know so much about apples, seasons and pollination from this book.

Great book to read and share with kids before taking trip to farm!

I've enjoyed all of the Let's Read and Find Out Science series, and this lovely book is no exception to the rule. Beautifully illustrated, it describes how an apple forms, from flower to ripe fruit.I would suggest 4.5 or 5 years old as a minimum age as the concepts are more complex, including the stamens and pistils of the flower and how bees pollinate the trees. I believe the book recommends "primary grades" (which in the US would be 6 and above) but my 4.5 year old enjoyed the book.

A great book to introduce parts of a plant beyond the absolute basics.

Really nice book
