A boy used to play by an apple tree as a child. As he grew up, he stopped playing with the tree and only came to it for its fruits and materials to sell or use. Over time, the tree offered its apples, branches, and trunk to help the boy, but he only took and never returned. In old age, the lonely boy returned to the tree, now also lonely, and sat by its roots, finding comfort in each other. The story aims to teach about showing gratitude to parents who give selflessly and only want their child's company in return.
The document tells a story about the relationship between a boy and an apple tree over many years. As the boy grows up, he returns to the tree asking for different things to help him at each stage of life - apples to sell, branches to build a house, wood for a boat. Each time, the tree gladly gives what it has to help the boy, even as it becomes sadder with each taking. In the end, when the old man has nothing left but a desire to rest, the tree offers its roots for him to lean on, expressing its enduring care for the boy who had become a man. The story is meant to represent the selfless love of parents and remind us to cherish and spend time

The boy finds a large, narrow tree in his backyard and carves his name into it. He spends time climbing the tree and sitting under it. A year later, he sees bark on the ground and wonders if he should play on the tree again. When he returns home from school, the tree has fallen down in a storm. Sadly, the boy cries as the tree is removed. He plants a new smaller tree in its place and hopes it will provide happy memories for his kids as well.
1) A boy loved to play in an apple tree as a child, climbing it, swinging from its branches, and eating its apples.
2) As the boy grew older, he asked the tree for money, apples to sell, wood for a house, and its trunk to make a boat, which the tree provided to make the boy happy.
3) When the boy returned as an old man, the tree had nothing left to give but offered her stump for the boy to rest on, which made them both happy.
I gave a speech about the Giving Tree for the Toastmasters Stortelling Manual, project# 1. This was one of my favorite stroies as a kid and I shared it with my own kids (thanks to a gift from my youngest sister. I gave the speech once at my home club and once at a club in Frankfurt Germany.
The boy used to play under the apple tree as a child, enjoying its shade and fruit. As the boy grew older, he asked the tree for help three times - to sell its fruit for toys, cut its branches for a house, and cut its trunk for a boat. Each time, the tree agreed to help the boy, though it grew sadder with each request granted. Years later, the old tree and old boy reunite, with the tree now only roots but offering the boy rest in its embrace.
The tree loved a boy and was happy when the boy would play in its branches. As the boy grew older, he used the tree for different needs - first cutting its branches to build a house, then cutting down its trunk to make a boat. Each time, the tree was sad to lose parts of itself but wanted to make the boy happy. When the boy returned as an old man just wanting rest, the tree welcomed him to sit on its remaining stump.
The story describes the relationship between a boy and an apple tree over many years. As the boy grows up, he uses parts of the tree for different needs - picking apples to sell for toys, cutting branches to build a house, and cutting the trunk to make a boat. Though the tree is always willing to help the boy, he never returns after taking what he needs. In the end, when the old man has nothing left and is tired, the tree offers its roots for him to rest on, and they are both glad to be together again.
The giving tree (The boy and the apple tree)Chris2610
A boy grew up playing under an apple tree. As he got older, he returned to the tree four times asking for things. Each time, the tree willingly gave of itself to help the boy, first offering its apples to sell, then branches for wood, its trunk for a boat, and finally its shade for the man to rest as he grew old. The moral of the story is that parents will always sacrifice for their children, just as the tree gave all it had to help the boy at each stage of his life.
A long time ago, there was a huge apple tree. A little boy loved to come and play around it everyday. He climbed to the treetop, ate the apples, took a nap under the shadow…he loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him. Time went by…the little boy had grown up and he no longer played around the tree every day.
One day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked sad. "Come and play with me” the tree asked the boy. "I am no longer a kid, I do not play around trees any more” the boy replied.
“I want toys. I need money to buy them.” “Sorry, but I do not have money… but you can pick all my apples and sell them. So, you will have money.” The boy was so excited. He grabbed all the apples on the tree and left happily. The boy never came back after he picked the apples. The tree was sad.
One day, the boy who now turned into a man returned and the tree was excited “Come and play with me” the tree said. “I do not have time to play. I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter. Can you help me?” “ Sorry, but I do not have any house. But you can chop off my branches to build your house.” So the man cut all the branches of the tree and left happily. The tree was glad to see him happy but the man never came back since then. The tree was again lonely and sad.
One hot summer day, the man returned and the tree was delighted. "Come and play with me!” the tree said. “I am getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat?” said the man. "Use my trunk to build your boat. You can sail far away and be happy.” So the man cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and never showed up for a long time.
Finally, the man returned after many years. "Sorry, my boy. But I do not have anything for you anymore. No more apples for you …” the tree said. "No problem, I do not have any teeth to bite" the man replied. "No more trunk for you to climb on” “I am too old for that now” the man said. "I really cannot give you anything... the only thing left is my dying roots” the tree said with tears. "I do not need much now, just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years” the man replied. "Good! Old tree roots are the best place to lean on and rest, Come, come sit down with me and rest.” The man sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears…

This is a story of everyone.
The tree is like our parents
When we were young, we loved to play with our Mum and Dad...
When we grow up, we leave them…only come to them when we need something or when we are in trouble.
No matter what,
parents will always be there and
give everything they could
just to make you happy.
The giving tree loved a little boy and would let him play in her branches. As the boy grew older, he would ask the tree for things to help him in life like money to buy things, wood to build a house, and her trunk to build a boat. Though the tree had less and less to give each time, she was always happy to give what she could to help the boy. In the end, when the boy was old and tired, all the tree had left was an old stump, but she offered even that for the boy to rest on, still finding happiness in giving to him.
