=== If read as a metaphor
* [[Happiness in Slavery]]
* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: The Giving Tree, of course.
Line 22 ⟶ 21:
* [[Rule of Symbolism]]: Things like the tree being able to talk as well as being alive even after being cut down are easy to [[Hand Wave]] if you take this story as an allegory.
=== If read
* [[Axe Crazy]]: The boy.
* [[Just Eat Gilligan]]: Why don't you just get a friend that doesn't want to kill you, Giving Tree? Why don't you cut down a tree who ''can't'' talk, or at least one that's not your friend, little boy? This is spoofed hilariously [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYQavD9mSIc here].
