The Apple Tree

The Apple Tree
Illustrated by: Marlena Campbell Hodson
Age Level: 3-6
Language: Cherokee

A Cherokee boy plants an apple seed, and as soon as a seedling appears he can see the apple tree it is meant to be. But the little apple tree isn’t so sure. Young and impatient, it begins to doubt its calling, especially after apples fail to appear that first fall. How can the boy convince the tree to give the seasons the time to work their magic? Story in English with Cherokee translation.
