A Apple Pie delightfully illustrates one of the earliest and most enduring English alphabet rhymes for children. This book that relates the various ways children react to an apple pie has taught children the order of the alphabet for ages. It is probably unique in its innovative and educative use of a verb for each letter, unlike mere nouns! The rhyme seems to have appealed particularly to a certain Charles Dickens, who mentions it in three works including Bleak House.
