WHY IS IT BANNED ?:(
The book is banned and challenged for many reasons and here are some of them.The book was banned because it was considered sexist. Also the boy in the book has a predatory nature because he just takes and takes from the tree and never does anything for her.There is a depressing nature of the book as well because the boy takes , the tree gives,and they die old.This book is said to give a bad message of parents because it undermines parental authority ,the boy is going to a tree (person) to ask for help instead of asking his parents ,where were his parents at this time.
To me people are just taking this too far ,what exactly are you going to give to a tree? People say that its wrong that he just takes from the tree but you cant really give a tree anything.Parents don't like that this book undermines parental authority but how do they know if the boy had parents or not.The tree provided things to him everyone needs and in the end he still came back to her(the tree).
I think this book shouldn't be banned for such reasons.This book is just a sugar coated way of what people do with trees.Children play under trees and use it for shade,We takes apples to eat and live,And we take wood to make paper and other things.Why ban a book for telling the truth or showing that people are still nice(the tree). Like I said before he came back to the tree because that was all he could do for the tree ,he and the tree were old so there wasn't much for him to do.
