Up, Up, Up! It's Apple-Picking Time

Read the story of Myles and Amber as they wake up early to visit Grandma and Grandpa's California apple orchard. They pick apples all day long, make apple cider, and snack on fresh apple pie. Before they know it, apple-picking time is over and apple-selling time has begun. This warmhearted story brings three generations of a family together to celebrate and share in the working of a fall harvest.
