Johnny Appleseed by Steven Kellogg (1988). This story has color, yet dull illustrations. This book is good for the reader to see different culture and ways of living.

Review: Johnny Appleseed by Steven Kellogg, 1988 is a traditional children's book about a man who grows apple trees. It's a cool story because Johnny Appleseed was a real person, but over time his story has turned into a fictional one.
Blurb: This story has really cool illustrations as well as a cool theme that children find fun and hard to believe.
Quote: “He thanked the exhausted woodsmen for there help and began planting.“

Steven Kellogg has always been one of my favorite illustrators. I've loved this one and his Paul Bunyan and Pecos Bill books since I was a kid.
