Apples, Apples up on top

Anybody want to guess where this line came from? Do you know the next line? Just curious.

Anyway, like the title mentions we have lots of apples this year. Our trees are loaded. Then the apples started falling and falling. Soon there were hundreds of apples on the ground. So some of our family went out there and picked up apples, and picked up apples, and picked up apples… you get the idea. They ended up with about 13 feed sacks of apples. (I think I was doing school that day.) So we decided that the best way to use that many apples was to squeeze them into juice. We will probably be squeezing a couple more times, based on the number of apples that are on the trees. But here are a couple pictures of our family making 30 gallons of apple juice.

Is that from a Dr. Suess easy reader with a cat or some kind of suessy animal with a stack of apples on its' head?
