Book Synopsis

In this merry, multi-species story cooked up with folksy warmth and humor, everybody gets a piece of the pie -- and then some.

Grandma Cat makes a delicious apple pie, and there's plenty for everyone -- and even a piece left over. Grandma Mouse finds a piece of apple pie, and there's plenty for everyone -- and even crumbs left over. Grandma Ant spies some crumbs of apple pie, and there's plenty for everyone. But what's left over after cats, mice, and ants have had their fill? Little readers will eat up this scrumptious, gently math-related story that's as sweet and satisfying as a fresh-baked dessert.

Review Quotes

"As warm and comforting as fresh-baked apple pie, this cinnamon sweet picture book about cooperation and sharing is just right for a family read-aloud. The Cat family is so satisfied with the apple pie Grandma Cat bakes that they leave only one last slice on the table before they take their naps. That leftover piece becomes a whole meal for the Mouse family, and their leftover crumbs in turn end up as perfect fare for the Ant family...The book celebrates the importance of family mealtime, but also provides an example of an amiable community where sugar, flour and harmony are all mixed together with love." --Publishers Weekly (starred review)
