Ten Red Apples

I was honestly surprised by how much my son loves this book! He can’t read it on his own yet, but due to the repetition in the book it’s easy for him to follow along and now he can basically quote it.

I used this book for an apple themed curriculum based speech-language unit for preschoolers. The story is set on a farm and the various common farm animals take an apple off the tree one by one counting from ten to zero. The text follows a predictable rhythm and rhyme sequence that the children enjoyed 'filling-in' and chiming along. Each animal makes a different noise which was good for my kids developing language as well as speech articulation. Each page also features the animal using a different word for 'eating' such as 'munch, chomp, nibble' etc. which was great for expanding vocabulary. The farmer exclaims on each page; "Save some for me" which was a great lesson in sharing/thinking of others, and problem solving for social skills objectives. Overall, this is a great fun story the children loved and can be used countless ways to expand language skills.

Wonderful book! Fits perfectly into my autumn themed story time! Children love this book. Easy to catch on to the rhythm of the words.The illustrations are bright, colorful and engaging!This is a must have addition to any good children's book collection!

My preschoolers and I love this book so much! It is a fun book and great for number recognition, counting, and beginning subtraction for preschoolers. The book is hardcover and excellent quality.

My preschoolers love this book and I do as well. Cute, cute pictures! The children love the rhyming and being able to interact with the story. Great for fall, apple themes and counting! A great book to use over and over again.

Cute book. Fills out an apple unit nicely. Not great literature but does have a story to go with the counting

I used it to teach my kindergarten class about Apples in an orchard. I also used it to teach counting to 5 year old students

Used this book for my pre school classroom read aloud. Enough words and pictures/visuals to keep 3-5 year olds engaged but not long enough to lose them.

Kids love it

Good for counting. Quite repetitive, not a great story .
