Description I drew a tree outside of my school's library and when I was finished it reminded me of the giving tree, so I decided that I'd want a giving tree that gave me ideas.

I had to google the story, but I do dimly remember having it read to me as a child. I can recall enough of it to realize how much I love your concept, though.

*I thought since it's a tree, it would be friendly to their/our environment.

Great idea (no pun intended)!

Thank you. IT was only a bit of reference to the book, sort of jumping off on the idea so hopefully it stands on it's own without knowing the story. LOL

Awesome! You must really have an idea giving tree, and it's giving you ideas like this ...but then it's like the whole chicken or the egg argument ...

I loved The Giving Tree too. Shel Silverstein rawks!

I loved that book. Some people hate it some love it. It's interesting how it can polarize people.

Somehow I haven't come across anyone who didn't like it, to be honest. Except one that thought it was too sad. But I think great works often end up being considered controversial, so I'm not surprised it affected people that way.

reed682 In reply to dannyfl0wers [2009-09-29 21:16:28 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I know someone who hated it and said the tree was a pushover. I like that you can see it in different ways, I think that makes for a good book.

dannyfl0wers In reply to reed682 [2009-09-30 17:56:58 +0000 UTC]

I agree. I think it speaks differently during certain periods of your life too. I have a much different view of the book's message than I used to when I was younger. I used to think the tree was some sort of masochist or something! But now I know better.
