An apple is a tasty fruit that grows on the apple tree.

Apple trees are part of the rose family, oddly enough, and they’ve been around for a really long time!

They actually began growing millions of years ago in Central Asia.

People started growing apple trees themselves about 4,000 years ago.

Now, apple trees can be found in lots of parts of the world.

Believe it or not, there are more than 7,500 different types of apples!

No matter the type, all apples have some things in common.

Each one has a top and bottom, a smooth skin, and a yummy part in the middle we can eat.

Apples are not only tasty but they’re good for our bodies too.

They’re full of important things like vitamins, fiber, and water that help keep us healthy.

You can eat apples fresh, straight off the tree, but they’re also great in pies, juices, salads, and even candies.

Sometimes people say “an apple a day keeps the doctor away” – it’s a fun way to remember that apples are part of a healthy lifestyle.

Apples aren’t just fun to eat and good for us, they’re part of our history and culture too.

So, the next time you bite into a juicy apple, remember, you’re enjoying a fruit millions of years in the making!
