FROM SARAH:

I loved this book! A trading-up story. Longer text, so it's a great fit for a wide range of ages, or for older kids. I wonder if your kids will want to write their own trading-up apple cake story after reading this one.

FROM THE PUBLISHER:

An old woman wants to bake an apple cake. She has everything she needs, except apples. So she sets off to market, taking a basket of plums to trade along the way, just in case...

This is a classic story of sharing, trading and caring. Children will love guessing what the woman will acquire next, and how, and seeing how her journey brings her a full circle as her kindness is repaid.
