Dear John Chapman,

Dear John Chapman,

Thank you for giving us apple orchards in Ohio.  I'm glad you were a Christian.   I'm a Christian too.  Thanks for walking miles just to plant apple trees.   I know it was hard for your parents.   But thank you for doing it any ways.   I love eating crunchy apples.  Granny Smiths are my favorite.  I bet you never used the pot your Mom gave you because so many people invited you for dinner.   I know the best thing about apples is pie.  That's one of my favorite pies.

From,
Tanner
