Most every night my 4 year old daughter climbs her tiny chair to reach this book from her shelf... I knew it was something special when Daddy AND the dog sat quietly on her bed while I read it! The look of tender compassion on my daughter's face as we go through the the stages of what the tree is willing to give is something she FEELS, not something she was "taught" how to feel. My entire family has enjoyed and "felt" this lovely book. Every household should have it!

I read this when I was a child and loved it. As soon as I saw it available to purchase, I had to own it. This is such a touching book, and I get choked up every time I read it. It also teaches a valuable lesson for children.
