The Forever Tree
The Forever Tree | Tereasa Surratt, Donna Lukas
3 posts | 4 read
A fresh twist on Shel Silverstein's The Giving Tree based on a real tree in Wisconsin that became something more, this is a timeless story about loss and renewal at home and in nature. "This is a true story about a Tree that grew from something more than water and sunshine. It grew from love." The animals and humans always knew their tree was special. The trunk was the best place to host championship bingo tournaments, and the branches were perfect for swinging in the shade! But when the tree gets sick, neighbors new and old will have to join forces if they have any chance of saving their treetop home. A touching tale based on the true story of one special tree, and the community that brought it back to life.

4⭐️ This lovely story is based on a real one. A tree is a home to many happy animals. Even humans can love a tree. But what do you do when a tree is considered “unsafe” or is no longer happy and green and leafy? You build a treehouse. I love that this is based on a real family, and a real tree. The story and the illustrations are lovely.

"The Squirrels stocked the Tree with books and games and colorful party supplies."

Those Squirrels are the best! ?
