Johnny Appleseed was a hermit and a wanderer, who was welcomed wherever he went in the Ohio territory. Everyone loved him, in spite of his unkempt appearance. He always carried a sack full of apple seeds to plant, and walked barefoot all-year round. He knew the frontier woods better than anyone. Even the Indians respected Johnny Appleseed for his willpower. People gave him the nickname “Johnny Appleseed” because he introduced and planted apple trees throughout the American Midwest. Johnny took his training as a nurseryman under Mr. Crawford, who inspired him to plant apple trees. ''How wonderful it would be if there are apple trees everywhere for everyone,'' Johnny thought. He decided to fulfill his wish. Johnny left his home with a cooking pot on his head and an old coffee sack filled with apple seeds. The kind-hearted Johnny wanted everyone to eat apples. Whenever he found a suitable place, he planted apple seeds. ''There will be enough apples for everybody; no one will die of hunger.'' What is the theme (main message) of this story?
