Florence Griffith Joyner: Olympic Runner
Originally posted on www.CreativeMadnessMama.com Johnny Appleseed, a legend
This year we are studying folk tales and legends. Starting our year with Memoria Press Second Grade Enrichment Guide our first book choice is Johnny Appleseed by Reeve Lindbergh. In addition to reading that book I decided to peruse our shelves for other Johnny Appleseed and apple themed books including this one, Johnny Appleseed: The Story of a Legend by Will Moses that I bought on recommendation of Sonlight Core A.
The illustrations are lovely with the lanky Johnny through out. Moses starts his book with the birth of John Chapman in 1774, continues into his youthful years, and then his adult life. In the reading of this book I noted that it is not a straight biographical picture book, but it is full of both fact and legend with no distinguishing remarks between which is which. As an add-on read to a unit study, I find this book to be delightful, attractive in imagery and prose. However, I would not recommend this book for your sole study of John Chapman as it is not clear enough on the facts. The book is lovely and I'm very glad to have it for our study.
