The Taking Tree


I recently posted a picture of a bench that reminded me of The Giving Tree. Several people commented on the tree's terrible fate and that the book should be called The Taking Boy. Looks like someone else had the same idea...

Huh. It says this one ends a little differently. I wonder if it ends in violence. I can see it now. A little chain saw perhaps? Is that too gory?

I love this book--just read it the other day. And let's just say there's a tombstone near the ending of the book:>)

(I know, millions of people love The Giving Tree. I'm just not one of them.)
