Items related to An Apple Pie for Dinner
Synopsis
Granny Smith wants to bake an apple pie, but she doesn’t have any apples. So off she goes with a basketful of plums in hopes that she can make a trade. Granny swaps plums for feathers, feathers for flowers, flowers for a gold coin, a gold coin for a puppy, and a puppy for what she hoped to find in the first place—apples! Then she bakes a delicious apple pie for everyone she has met along the way. Based on an English folktale, each spread is meticulously illustrated in bas-relief made from baked clay, hand-sewn clothing, and mixed media. Author and Illustrator notes and an apple pie recipe are also included.

Review
Take a whimsical romp through the countryside with Granny Smith, who barters newfound treasures for apples she turns into a delectable apple pie. And you can too, thanks to the thoughtfully provided recipe. Yum, yum, apple pie for dinner! A charming book. --Marcel Desaulniers, author, Death By Chocolate, four-time James Beard Foundation award-winner, and Trustee Emeritus and Life Fellow, Culinary Institute of America
The good-hearted text... scans well and will be a welcome addition to a storytime or family read-aloud. Baicker-McKee's bright, mixed-media collages include clay, fabric, pipe cleaners and other items, creating a pleasingly tactile look. --Kirkus Reviews
From Granny's lace cap and embroidered apron to her woven basket and fuzzy dog, the fascinating tactile details will have young and old poring over the pages. Complete with a pie recipe... the book is a delicious treat to be shared anytime. --Booklist
Loved the book. [VanHecke] has a real gift. --Graham Kerr, the "Galloping Gourmet," culinary and television personality and award-winning author
Set off with Granny Smith and discover how kindness can have the best reward of all -- a perfect apple pie shared with friends. Delicious! --Matthew Loccrichio, award-winning author of the International Cookbooks For Kids and Super Chef series
