The Apple Pie that Papa Baked

A familiar cadence builds the story of the apple pie that Papa baked for his daughter and sharing it with her, accompanied by their farm animals. The illustrations for this satisfying saga have an informal, old-fashioned appearance which builds with the rhyme.

“Snug inside her warm den, a polar bear cub wakes. Something in the moonlit stillness quietly beckons. What is it?” The tug of this gentle mystery will draw children into Thompson’s simple bedtime story, and the hypnotic ebb and flow of her alliterative lines will keep children immersed as the young explorer encounters floating, dreaming sea creatures, and witnesses a meteor shower that further transforms the already exotic nighttime surroundings.
