Quote #7
"Well," said the tree, straightening herself up as much as she could, "well, an old stump is good for sitting and resting. Come, Boy, sit down. Sit down and rest." And the boy did. And the tree was happy. (54-55)
In the end, the tree is happy because yet again she's been able to provide comfort for the one she loves: the boy. Who is now a very old man.
