Illus. in full color. An apple pie is easy to make...if the market is open. But if the market is closed, the world becomes your grocery store. This deliciously silly recipe for apple pie takes readers around the globe to gather ingredients. First hop a steamboat to Italy for the finest semolina wheat. Then hitch a ride to England and hijack a cow for the freshest possible milk. And, oh yes! Don't forget to go apple picking in Vermont! A simple recipe for apple pie is included.

Synopsis:

When an energetic little baker discovers that the market is closed, she travels the world to find the freshest ingredients for her apple pie. Full color.

Jennifer Starkman, July 7, 2007 (view all comments by Jennifer Starkman)
If you wanted to bake an apple pie, but found the store closed when you went to buy the ingredients, what would you do? Why, travel the world to gather them from their original sources, of course!
In a story that charmingly brings to mind current gourmet trends promoting the use of local ingredients and food prepared lovingly from scratch, the protagonist of How to Make an Apple Pie literally travels the globe, gathering each of the ingredients for her pie. Priceman has managed to create a story that is not only entertaining, but provides a simple-yet-vivid lesson on geography and the origins and preparation of the foods we eat, in language simple enough for a preschooler to enjoy and understand
