Re: The Giving Tree

I don't usually reply to the group, but...

Am I the only one who sees the story as unconditional love?  As a parent
it's all I can see and I think I'm a fairly decent person (male)
besides.  I use the book with 2 others in a set of storytimes dealing
with giving (not giving and receiving) - A tree is nice and The gift of the
tree.  This book is *real*.
