Janini, age 6

Responds to the English folk tale The Apple Dumpling:

Why did the old woman give away her flowers and her golden chain without asking for anything in return?
Janini: The old woman gave away her flowers and her golden chain because she wanted apples to make apple dumplings.

Why did the old woman finally get her apple dumpling at the end?
Janini: The old woman wanted to eat apple dumpling and other things she got were not important to her.

Comments?
Janini: Always to share things with others.

Note to Whootie friends- Lots of free materials on the story The Apple Dumpling including a complete Reader's Theatre play script.
