Description

The story of The Farmer's Wife tells how a woman first loses an apple down a hole, and then attempts a series of efforts to get it back. Children enjoy learning to repeat the sequence from memory, but, when the story takes a sudden turn contrary to all expectations, they also learn important lessons about how to resolve problems creatively.

The strikingly beautiful illustrations by Rose Mary Santiago invoke the origins of the story -- this traditional story has been told for hundreds of years in the Middle East and Central Asia -- while at the same time lending a uniquely playful atmosphere to this very amusing story.
