"Once there was a tree ... and she <br />loved a little boy." So begins a <br />story of unforgettable perception, <br />beautifully written. <br /><br />"This Pixel-Media Movie, <br />augments the piece by bringing <br />together a blend of diction and music <br />in a distinctive and impressive manner". <br /><br />Every day the boy would come <br />to the tree to eat her apples, swing <br />from her branches, or slide down <br />her trunk ... and the tree was happy. <br />But as the boy grew older he began <br />to want more from the tree, and <br />the tree gave and gave. <br /><br />This is a tender story, touched <br />with sadness, aglow with consolation. <br />Shel Silverstein has created a <br />moving parable for readers of all ages <br />that offers an affecting interpretation <br />of the gift of giving and a serene <br />acceptance of another's capacity to <br /> love in return.
