'Once there was a tree...and she loved a little boy.' So begins a story of unforgettable perception, beautifully written and illustrated by the gifted and versatile Shel Silverstein. Every day the boy would come to the tree to eat her apples, swing from her branches, or slide down her trunk...and the tree was happy. But as the boy grew older he began to want more from the tree, and the tree gave and gave and gave. This is a tender story, touched with sadness, aglow with consolation. Shel Silverstein has created a moving parable for readers of all ages that offers an affecting interpretation of the gift of giving and a serene acceptance of another's capacity to love in return. Ages 10+

Once upon a time, little Cindy sat sulking in her "time out tower." She was known to be a handful, always having meltdowns and yelling at anyone who crossed her path, even the family dog. Her habit of yelling earned her the nickname Cindayella, which only made her angrier. But one night, something magical happened. Cindy was visited by the Fairy Wordmother, a wise fairy who came to teach her the power of words. With a wave of her wand, the Fairy Wordmother took Cindy on a journey to see the impact of her words. With a bit of magic, Cindy learned how her words can be helpful or hurtful. From this new understanding Cindy promises to speak kindly to friends, family, and even her dog! Will she be able to keep this promise and use her words for good? Or will she slip back to her old ways?
