The tales explore the lives and thoughts of various trees and plants, anthropomorphizing them with rich characterizations and personalities. Central to the book is the titular story, which follows the journey of a willow tree planted in a prestigious avenue, dealing with themes of identity, acceptance, and the nature of beauty. The opening of the collection introduces readers to the willow tree that was mistakenly planted among proud poplars. As the willow strives to fit into its new environment, it faces disdain from the poplars for not measuring up to their standards of elegance. Throughout the narrative, the willow reflects on its identity, struggles to grow straight like the poplars, and ultimately finds itself praised by the squire for providing shade, illustrating a journey of self-acceptance. The passage sets up the emotional landscape of the book, contrasting the inner lives of flora with societal expectations, and hints at deeper themes of resilience and belonging.
