Bookroo's summary
In a small town, a cherished tree stands as a symbol of unity and joy, hosting bingo games and providing shade. When it falls ill, the community must rally together to save their beloved treetop haven. Can old and new neighbors unite to breathe life back into this special tree? Discover a heartwarming tale of love, loss, and renewal inspired by true events.
From the publisher
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.
