The Whole Story of “a Boy and an Apple Tree”

Long long ago, there was a boy whose best friend was a huge apple tree. They loved each other very much. There was a wonderful time when they played together happily all day long. Time going by, the boy grew up and left the tree. One day, the boy returned. The reason why he was back was that he didn’t have money for his favourite toy. The tree offered the boy all his apples that he could sell to buy his favourite toy.

Years later, the boy came back again. This time he needed a house for his newly-born boy. The tree provided the boy with his branches where birds usually built nests to build a house for his newly-born boy. The boy was more than happy and left.

Several years later, the boyreturned again, very upset. He wanted a boat to go sailing. The tree gave the boy his trunk which could be used to make a boat sailing in the sea.

After many years, the boy returned. The tree had nothing to offer but his dying root. The boy realized the old tree root is the best place where he could have a good rest. Actually, it is a story concerning everyone of us.
