[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dude- it's like one of the most controversial books in children's literature. Lots of different interpretations. I'm of the opinion that Children are by nature narcissists, so why feed into that ? If you take a religious view - it's gods unconditional love. Or it's parent /child. Or it's how we shittily treat the environment. Pick one. It's lovely that your child loves to be read to. That likely out weighs the messages in this particular story. He'll tire of it soon enough. [/quote] Really? When I was little, I liked it because the tree was always there for him. As a teen, I cried reading it because the tree was always alone and just waiting for him to return. Now that I am older, I think the boy/man is a total selfish prick. I am sure your three year old just likes the b&w drawings. [/quote]
