The Apple Orchard

The apple orchards are in full bloom. Then the blossoms grow into beautiful red apples... The apples are harvested and Ada Apple is left hanging on the tree... she waits and watches for the apple pickers to return. They do not come back for her. The seasons pass and Winter comes. Ada is so sad and still hanging on the tree. Ada is now dark and dry... Then something happens. The wind makes Ada fall off the tree. Ada falls and breaks open, losing her seeds in the soil.

In the spring something wonderful happens. Ada's seed turns into tiny apple trees... the farmer plants her trees in the apple orchard... and this was Ada's purpose to help the apple orchard continue to produce fruit... This is a social and emotional book to help support young children... when everything seems too sad in their life.... Ada lets them know that it's alright to feel sad... but to understand that things will get better....
