The Giving Tree

When I was A child, my favorite childrens book was The Giving Tree. I always wanted my parents to read me this book because I liked it so much. I liked this book because it had a really good story line too it, it wasn't a funny book, but I still loved it. I also remember the book very well because my grandmother used to read it to my dad when he was little so I remember how the book has been read to me and my dad. 
The author of The Giving Tree is Shel Silverstein. Shel wrote a few childrens book but his most famous were The Giving Tree and A Giraffe And A Half.
