Annotation:
Learning about different cultures and the commonalities between them is the message of this beautifully illustrated picture book. From an unnamed country and unable to speak English, head scarf-clad Farah finds that she's not so out of place on a class field trip to a cider mill. Familiar things--animals, sounds, and friendship--help her along, as well as her addition of a green apple to the red-apple filled cider press, making a wonderful drink. With Ted Lewin's sparkling watercolors.

Author Bio
Eve Bunting
Born in Ireland, Bunting moved to the United States in 1958 with her husband, Ed, and their three children. She began her career as a writer by taking a writing class at a local junior college. Her first book, THE TWO GIANTS, was published in 1972. In 1976, her book ONE MORE FLIGHT received the Golden Kite Award from the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators.
Praise
"Young readers will respond as much to Bunting's fine first-person narrative as to Lewin's double-page, photorealistic watercolors...."
06/01/2006
"Lewin's sunlit watercolors, full of space and shadow, are a lovely match for Bunting's simple but never simplistic story."
