Erik Johnson Parodies Shel Silverstein's The Giving Tree, a Classic of Modern Children's Literature In the mid 1990s Erik was a youth pastor helping teens enter responsible adulthood. One of the challenges he saw facing adolescent girls was the pressure put on them by adolescent boys. There was an unspoken belief that if you loved someone you will give them whatever they want, ask no questions, and make no demands. At the same time Shel Silverstein's classic, The Giving Tree had wide circulation. It seemed to foster the notion that the more you love someone the more you comply with their growing demands. To encourage the girls in the youth group to establish healthy boundaries Erik rewrote the text. In his version Anna the Banana tree says no to a friend attempting to take advantage of her. He then redrew The Giving Tree in poster format.He first read his parody to an assembly of forty teenagers on a Wednesday night in 1995. The reception was so positive he reformatted that first draft and self published the book in small, black and white copies.
