JOHNNY APPLESEED Now on Sale!


















My new children's book, THE LEGEND OF JOHNNY APPLESEED has been published by Stone Arch Books, and is now on sale! It's a beautiful book, lovingly illustrated by M.A. Lamoreaux.

Makes a great companion volume to my new THE TALL TALE OF PAUL BUNYAN book, too. Hmm...Guess this is my first biography, since John Chapman really lived.

Anyway, I loved writing the book, and I'm very excited to see this in print. The library edition, with its hardcover binding, is gorgeous.

Take a peek at this free preview:

  1. Very nice book, Martin, and thanks for the preview. The art is very nice and should appeal to children a lot, and the colors added just the right touch. Very well done.
