Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Myles and Amber wake up early to visit Grandma and Grandpa's California apple orchard. They pick apples all day long, climbing ladders and disappearing into trees to fill bushels of Red and Golden Delicious, McIntosh and Pippins, Gravensteins and Winter Bananas. Grandma makes apple cider, and they snack on fresh apple pie. Before they know it, apple-picking time is over and apple-selling time has begun. Grandpa sets up the roadside apple stand, and neighbors gather to buy the fresh fruit. When the apples have all been sold, the family gathers for one more meal before Myles and Amber make the long trip back home. This warmhearted story brings three generations of a family together to celebrate and share in the working of a fall harvest.
