Johnny Appleseed was a legend even in his own time-stories abounded about the kindhearted woodsman who planted thousands of apple seeds from Pennsylvania to Indiana.  The real Johnny Appleseed was born John Chapman in a small village in Massachusetts.  When he was a young man, he set off for the western frontier and along the way collected bags of apple seeds from cider mills.  As John Chapman's apple orchards grew in number, so did the tales of Johnny Appleseed.  In this wise and witty story, Will Moses relates the life of a great American folk hero who helped open and tame the wild frontier.
