About this audiobook

Long ago on the open prairies of America there lived a poor old man known as Johnny Appleseed. His wife had died, his children were grown and gone, and he had no home. He mended tin kettles for a night's lodging, played his old violin, and sang. Wherever he went, he saved the seeds from every apple he was given and planted them in the rich black soil. This true story comes from Elizabeth Harrison's In Story-Land, a book of tales for children written by the head of the Chicago Kindergarten College. Aaron Sokalski reads it. It asks what makes a person a hero, and answers with a ragged old man and a great many orchards. Nine minutes, good for listening together.
