The Giving Tree
♦ About the poet

Activity 1
Describe how the title ‘The Giving Tree’ is suitable for the story.
The title "The Giving Tree" is suitable because the tree continuously gives everything it has to the boy throughout his life. The tree provides leaves, fruits, branches, and even its trunk to make the boy happy. The story highlights the tree's selfless love and generosity, making the title fitting and meaningful.

Activity 2
The tree invited the man to sit down and take rest on its stump.
The man did so and started thinking about the tree. What would be his thoughts?
As I sit on the stump, I can't help but think about how much the tree has given me over the years. From the leaves and fruits to the branches and trunk, the tree has always been there for me, providing everything I needed. I feel a deep sense of gratitude for its unwavering generosity and selflessness. At the same time, I regret taking so much without giving anything in return. The tree's sacrifices and unconditional love have taught me the true meaning of friendship and giving. Now, as I rest on the stump, I realize how much the tree has meant to me and how much I owe it.
