An old woman wants to bake an apple cake. She has everything she needs, except apples. So she sets off to market, taking a basket of plums to trade along the way, just in case...

This is a classic story of sharing, trading and caring. Children will love guessing what the woman will acquire next, and how, and seeing how her journey brings her a full circle as her kindness is repaid.

Nienke van Hichtum is the pseudonym of well-known Frisian Dutch childrens author Sjoukje Maria Diderika de Boer (1860 1939). Marjan van Zeyl was born in Amsterdam and has illustrated several books for children, including Daisy the Hungry Duck and Hannah on the Farm.
