Johnny Appleseed

Description

David R. Collins. Young John was restless. By 1792, when he turned eighteen, his feet were itching for travel. His father handed him a parting gift and said, “As long as you carry God’s Word, your path will always be straight.” Although Johnny headed west, the roads he took weren’t always straight. In his knapsack he carried his Bible and as many apple seeds as he could stuff in. The only roots he knew were those he planted for others–the rich, growing roots of seedling apple trees. This is the biography of Johnny Appleseed. Paper; Mott Media.
