The Giving Back Tree is an original take on the classic tale of a tree who gave everything. This story is social commentary intended to contribute to the intergenerational healing needed in our times.
Long ago, there was a tree who loved a boy. She gave him all she had, until she had no more to give. But what happens to the tree after the boy is gone? So begins the inspiring and heartwarming tale of a young girl who meets the tree and loves her without expectation.
Love is a powerful healing force in this tender and magical adventure that reminds us the end is also a new beginning. Beautifully written and illustrated, The Giving Back Tree teaches a simple lesson: we can grow back.

My Review - 5 of 5 stars -
I enjoyed this story. It would make a wonderful bedtime read for children and adults alike. The idea of taking care of the tree, encouraging it to grow, and enjoying its beauty touched my heart. I felt sad when the tree gave everything but definitely felt joy as it found new purpose. The illustrations were fairly simple and told the story along with the words. I highly recommend this for everyone.
I received a copy of this story through Goddess Fish Promotions, and this is my unsolicited review.
