This book is about a tree that gives and gives and gives (like a parent) to a child. The child moves away... the tree gave up so much to the boy through life, even his wood.. till there's nothing left but a stump. When all is said and done, the boy still loves the tree that gave him so much fun and pleasure and product in life. In the end the boy, now an old man, comes back to visit and reminisce of all that the tree provided & his youthful times growing up playing in the tree. This book makes me cry every time I read it and I've read it to my kids and my grandkids and I still cry. It's such a tender sweet book. I bought this at birth so parents could start reading it to the kids and have it when they're 2 and 3 years old. We start reading to children early.
