Description from franny: as a child we read the "Coles Funny Picture Book" which prefaced its tales & morals wih glossy coloured pages of lots of shiny apples, including the big green Granny Smith, deep Red Delicious etc with their beautiful skin colourings - the new Czech beads even have the brighter pinks to represent the recent Gala & Pink Lady apples - the title is an old Aussie expression for "don't worry, everything will be OK (ie. sweet, as in apples) " 'cause that little bead in the middle looks a little glum!
