One day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked sad. Come and play with me, the tree asked the boy. I am no longer a kid. I dont play around trees anymore. The boy replied, I want toys. I need money to buy them. Sorry, but I dont have money... but you can pick all my apples and sell them. So, you will have money. The boy was so excited.
