Setting: A forest
Plot: Once there was a tree in the forest and a little boy would come to it each day. The boy did many things, like gather its leaves and make a crown and play “king of the forest”. When he was tires he would sleep in its shade. Time flew by and the boy grew older. One day the boy came back asking for money. The tree gave him apples to sell. The boy stayed away for a long time and the tree felt sad. Then he came back asking for money to buy a house. The tree let him cut off its branches to make him happy. The boy stayed away for a long time and came back only to ask for a boat to go far away. So the tree let him cut down its trunk to make him happy. And the tree was very happy too. Then when the boy came back the tree had nothing to give him. It let the boy rest on its stump and felt happy.
