Additional Information

'The Apple' tells the story of a rosy red apple who yearns to see the world beyond his tree. With the help of a friendly rooster he finally gets a glimpse into the lives of others.

The apple was the first book ever created by Dick Bruna, the author and illustrator that is most associated with his character Miffy.

'As far back as I can remember, and I am 81 years old now, I have always loved art... after the war, I went to Paris, and there I discovered the great works of Matisse, Picasso, Léger and Braque. This was the turning point in my life. I came back to the Netherlands, knowing that I wanted to be an artist, and full of inspiration based on the artistic styles I had seen. In a way, the simple story of Miffy the artist encapsulates what happened to me. I hope it inspires parents to introduce art to their children as early as possible!' - Dick Bruna

Dick Bruna (1927 - 2017) was a Dutch illustrator, artist and graphic designer. Using clear, bold design and bright colour, he established a design technique that has become internationally recognised. He wrote and illustrated over 200 children's books, and his books have been translated into over 40 languages.
