Codell, Esme Raji
His real name was John Chapman.
He grew apples.
But wait. So what?
Why should we remember him and read about him and think about him and talk about him today,
more than two hundred years after he was born?
Why should we call him a hero?
Esmé Raji Codell and Lynne Rae Perkins show us, in eloquent words and exhilarating pictures, why Johnny Appleseed matters now, perhaps more than ever, in our loud and wired and fast-paced world.
