Items related to Johnny Appleseed
John Chapman--better known as Johnny Appleseed--had wilderness adventures that became larger-than-life legends. Pioneering west from Massachusetts after the American Revo-lution, John cleared land and planted orchards for the settlers who followed, leaving apple trees and tall tales in his wake. In this glorious picture book retelling, Steven Kellogg brings one of America's favorite heroes--and the stories that surrounded him--to life.

Review:
..".Kellogg's color has never been so rich and luxuriant, and his well-composed spreads are individualized with expressive faces and shading and detatiled without being cluttered....An affectionate portrayal, enthusiastically accomplised.""-- Booklist..".The brief text combining legend with fact, coupled with the picture book format, makes this life of Johnny Appleseed the most accessible and entertaining now available to young children...""-- School Library Journal
