As you know, I love the woods, as does Moe. I have always loved walking through trees and forests and have been known to occasionally hug trees! When I first read "The Giving Tree" I was horrified. I love Shel Silverstein and couldn't believe he had written a book about a boy so selfish as the boy in that story. I wondered if I didn't get it. I know it's about total sacrifice, but it still didn't sit well with me. So, I wrote a story about a boy and some trees. I understand that I am no Shel Silverstein. It's changed and been edited a fair bit over the years, and I wanted to share it with you. I hope you like it. And I still love Shel's books, just not "The Giving Tree" so much!

I hope you enjoy Annan and the Forest.
