The Giving Tree Review

The greatest lesson about giving ever written.  I know a lot of people think it's about being selfish, but it's not called The Taking Boy, it's The Giving Tree.  The tree is happy to give, and even when it seems there is nothing left to give, the Tree can still be happy by just giving the gift of Being There for someone else.

I've given away dozens of copies of this book over the years (and only one copy to a child).  I usually add a copy to a wedding gift, because I think it's an important lesson for any couple starting out together.
