The Giving Tree (Slipcased Mini Edition)

This wonderful, heartfelt story is a life lesson for all ages. This book is given to every baby born into our family and has been going on 3 generations.

This was my Daughter’s favorite book. I was lucky to add three Great Grandkids to my family this fall and got a copy for each one- I am sure they will enjoy it too. A lovely story to share with your kids and an easy one to read for first time readers.

This book is about a tree that gives and gives and gives (like a parent) to a child. The child moves away... the tree gave up so much to the boy through life, even his wood.. till there's nothing left but a stump. When all is said and done, the boy still loves the tree that gave him so much fun and pleasure and product in life. In the end the boy, now an old man, comes back to visit and reminisce of all that the tree provided & his youthful times growing up playing in the tree. This book makes me cry every time I read it and I've read it to my kids and my grandkids and I still cry. It's such a tender sweet book. I bought this at birth so parents could start reading it to the kids and have it when they're 2 and 3 years old. We start reading to children early.

A timeless classic story that speaks to the mind and heart at once, teaching them both much. A book for the young and old.

I buy 5 6 7 books a week and this boy just lives this one he keeps going back to it lol I love it too great life lesson

I liked it my son keeps asking to read it over and overBurger dog story booger three more words required

This story seems best for a slightly older child, maybe 9-10. Explores the idea of love and care that is not reciprocated. It's a story that even touches an adult audience.

Great book . Message is for children and adults

This book always makes me tear at the end for some reason. I find that the story tells a tale of our mortality and in giving of ourselves for me. His other books are equally great! Where the sidewalk ends was a fave as a child!

Confession - I cry every time when I read this book 🫣The Giving Tree is a beautiful, thought-provoking tale that speaks to readers of all ages. Shel Silverstein’s simple yet powerful writing and illustrations deliver a moving story about the nature of giving, selflessness, and love.The story revolves around the relationship between a boy and a tree. As the boy grows, the tree selflessly gives everything it has to make him happy. It’s a touching metaphor about unconditional love and the passage of time, offering valuable lessons about gratitude and selflessness.Silverstein’s illustrations are minimalist but add depth to the narrative, perfectly complementing the emotional weight of the story. Although some readers may interpret the ending as bittersweet or even sad, it opens up meaningful conversations about the balance between giving and receiving.Whether you're a parent reading to a child, or an adult revisiting the tale, The Giving Tree remains a timeless, emotionally resonant experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a story that’s as heartwarming as it is thought-provoking.
