Commentary During Books The Giving Tree

"Once there was a tree...and she loved a little boy." So begins a story of unforgettable perception, beautifully written and illustrated by the gifted and versatile Shel Silverstein. Every day the boy would come to the tree to eat her apples, swing from her branches, or slide down her trunk...and the tree was happy. But as the boy grew older he began to want more from the tree, and the tree gave and gave and gave. This is a tender story, touched with sadness, aglow with consolation. Shel Silverstein has created a moving parable for readers of all ages that offers an affecting interpretation of the gift of giving and a serene acceptance of another's capacity to love in return.

Review on 1st Read: Read it with my little sister Sarah. It's a sweet and thought-provoking read. It explains so much in such simple and straight-forwards words. Review on 2nd Read: I read this again today because my father saw a video on facebook that was based on it but in the end it related the tree to parents who give everything for their children. My father loved it and I couldnt stop myself from printing out the 2 pages and hand it to him. I love him and I love this book.This book really
