The Last Apple Tree

Twelve-year-old Sonnet moves in with her grandfather after her nana's death, finding the once-vibrant apple orchard reduced to a single heirloom tree. Struggling with her emotions, she clashes with her neighbor Zeke when he tries to interview her grandpa for a school project. As Sonnet navigates her newfound responsibilities in the Green Club and unwittingly drags Zeke into her plans, a shared crisis forces them to confront deeper family secrets and the importance of memory. Award-winning author Claudia Mills weaves a poignant story of unexpected friendship and the complexities of generational connections.
