The farm animals cannot imagine life without the orchard, and Little Apple Goat doesn't know how she will manage without her fruit.But time passes, and something mysterious begins to happen on the farm . . . Sweet, colorful illustrations bring to life this clever tale that will charm young readers and also introduce them to the changing seasons.
