I bought this book for my significant other because it has a very special meaning for the two of us. It reminds us of our first few weeks together an so I gave it to her this past New Years. This is a beautiful story rich with meaning. This is a story of love, giving, and selflessness. The book has nice but simple illustrations. I bought the 50th anniversary edition because I am not so fond of the author's mug shot at the rear of the book which is present in most versions. The only two versions I've found without the large picture of the author are this 50th Anniversary Cloth Slipcover Edition in which the picture is completely absent and the Japanese Version, which is actually in English but has Japanese Hiragana at the bottom. In the Japanese version the picture is printed on the slipcover but not on the book itself. Anyway, aside from the author's picture this book is beautiful and special and is destined to become a favorite for any child or special someone. Cheers!Read full review
One of the most beautiful printings of a timeless classic. This is the perfect version of this beloved story to pass along to friends & family — small and compact with a cloth cover and slipcase. Highest recommendation!

A bittersweet but wonderful story about life and the power of love. Personally I view the tree as if it were one or both his parent/s. They would give their all for their child. This story does not grow old.
