+ | The story escalated as it went on. It basically showed the relationship of the tree and the boy as the boy grew up. The visuals were kind of plain but showed the passing over time of the boy turning into a man. The book wasn't very colorful, but sent a good message. I believe the fact that the book was black and white and the cover showed color sent a big message. | ||

- | My favorite part was when the boy came back only to sit on the tree like he did as a boy. He was so caught up in the fact of taking everything from the tree and leaving it, that he never realized he wasn't giving the tree anything in return to make it happy. He was taking everything and giving nothing. | + | My favorite part was when the boy came back only to sit on the tree like he did as a boy.

+ | I would definitely recommend this book to any age. It is a popular book for a reason. It shows friendship and sharing. It shows how some people will give so much to a certain person and never ask for anything in return. It shows how caring some people can be. | ||
