{"product_id":"9781442440661","title":"The Taking Tree: A Selfish Parody","description":"We all know the story of the “selfless” tree that gave all she had just to make sure a young boy was “happy.” This is a different tree. This is a different boy. This is a very different book.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe Taking Tree is not pleased when the boy takes her twigs to pick on his sister, or when he cuts off her branches to build a house that he burns for insurance money. And the boy is not sorry at all. Ever. In fact, he’s kind of a jerk. So what happens when the tree finally gets fed up? Let’s just say the story doesn’t end sweetly with an old man sitting on a stump.","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster Books For Young Readers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47142896926960,"sku":"9781442440661","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781442440661_p0.jpg?v=1763805185","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781442440661","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
