In this merry, multi-species story cooked up with folksy warmth and humor, everybody gets a piece of the pie — and then some.
Grandma Cat makes a delicious apple pie, and there's plenty for everyone — and even a piece left over. Grandma Mouse finds a piece of apple pie, and there's plenty for everyone — and even crumbs left over. Grandma Ant spies some crumbs of apple pie, and there's plenty for everyone. But what's left over after cats, mice, and ants have had their fill? Little readers will eat up this scrumptious, gently math-related story that's as sweet and satisfying as a fresh-baked dessert.

David Martin is the author of WE'VE ALL GOT BELLYBUTTONS! illustrated by Randy Cecil, and PIGGY AND DAD GO FISHING, illustrated by Frank Remkiewicz, among other books. He lives in Vermont's Northeast Kingdom.
Valeri Gorbachev has written and illustrated many books for children, including GOLDILOCKS AND THE THREE BEARS, which SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL called "a perfect version for preschoolers." He lives in Brooklyn, New York.
This genial picture book begins with Grandma Cat making an apple pie. After Little Brother, Big Sister, Momma, Poppa, and Grandma each eat a slice, the cats contentedly take naps. While they sleep, the Mouse family carts off the last piece of pie to its own snug home. After Little Brother, Big Sister, Momma, Poppa, and Grandma Mouse share their pie, the mice snuggle down for naps, too. While they sleep, the ant family carries off the crumbs, polishing off all the remaining pie. Meanwhile, Grandma Cat awakes and makes another pie, this time with help from all the cats, mice, and ants. This book lends itself well to reading aloud, for children will enjoy chiming in with the many repeated lines in the story. Washed with watercolors in warm, tawny hues, the ink drawings create a series of charming domestic scenes featuring jovial families of the various species. Good fare for young children.
