December - Apple And The Copycat

Apple sneaks out of the fruit storage shed to get some exercise and is amazed to find a little shell with an identical apple inside. She doesn't realise the shell is a mirror and the apple is her reflection and gets very cross that the visitor won't speak to her. But Big Apple explains what a reflection is and Apple then has a lot of fun watching her mirror image copying her every move.
