Engagingly nostalgic, this red, black, yellow, and cream-colored picture book follows the fine cumulative tradition so beloved by children. Starting with a little girl and her father's delicious apple pie, the narrative moves onto talk about everything that went into making the tasty treat. Both a 2007 Publishers Weekly and Kirkus Reviews Best Children's Book.

Review 1:
"Thompson again proves herself a master of mixing up a treat--warm, sweet and satisfying; Bean, who explains his multi-step creative process in a note, is someone to watch."

Review 2:
"This tribute to the artist of an earlier age should take its place among bedtime favorites; if it persuades families to explore picture book classics, so much the better."
