The first time I read this book out loud was to a Pre-K class and they really were inspired by the story.

Following the read aloud the class did an activity where we listed all the different uses of apples. following that we played a game that involved holding up paper apples when we hear ours called. This was great for assessing following directions. so as you can see this book foste More...

Mother Cat makes a pie and everyone has a piece. There is only one piece left. Then the Mouse family comes and takes most of that piece and there are crumbs left. The Ant family comes and takes the crumbs. When the Cat family wake up, Mother Cat says she's hungry. Should she bake another pie? Yes! is the unanimous response from her family and the Mouse family and the Ant family.

The illustrations in this book were lively and very fun and I liked the sharing sentiment told within. A fun and lighthearted tale for pie lovers and those who admire all of mother earth's creatures.

A brief and sweet story of how one pie gets eaten and another gets made. As we change viewpoints from family to family the perspective in the illustrations also changes so that the toys from one family become giant in the eyes of the next.

One man's crumbs is another man's meal. Wouldn't it be wonderful to be in a space where one really is for all and all is for one!

My first graders love this story, and it's a great tie-in to their in-class fall unit on apples. The repetition is catchy, and the illustrations are wonderful. There are a lot of clues on the front and back cover to help students guess how the story is going to turn out.
