Apple-Themed Books for Kindergarten

One unit most teachers can’t wait to teach is apples! What a fun, hands-on, and engaging way to teach about fall for little learners. Let’s talk about outstanding apple-themed books for a kindergarten classroom.

Johnny Appleseed Books

First, since Johnny Chapman AKA Johnny Appleseed is half the reason we celebrate apples in the fall, it is fitting we start with books about him.

  2. Johnny Appleseed by Reeve Lindbergh (poem)
  3. Johnny Appleseed Read to Read by Jane Kurtz
  4. Johnny Appleseed: My Story by David L. Harrison

  6. From Apple Trees to Cider, Please! by Felicia Sanzari Chernesky

Fun with Fiction

Then, why only talk about science and social studies with apples? We can have fun with fictional books as well. Here is a great list of fictional titles.
