An apple is a juicy fruit that is good to eat. You can make things like apple juice, apple sauce, and apple pies, too.

Apples come in 3 colors: red, green, and yellow. Some apples have more than one color.

Apple trees have flowers that are pink and then turn white. Apple flowers are related to roses.

Most apples are picked by hand in the fall. They stay fresh for a long time so you can enjoy them all year.

Every apple has 5 seed pockets. If you cut an apple in half from side to side, the seed pockets make the shape of a star.

Most apples are about the size of a baseball. Some are almost as small as cherries, and the biggest one weighed almost 3 pounds.

Apples are fat-free, full of fiber, and have only 80 calories. Americans eat about 65 apples every year.
