This story has entranced readers of all ages since it was first published twenty-five years ago. The Education of Little Tree tells of a boy orphaned very young, who is adopted by his Cherokee grandmother and half-Cherokee grandfather in the Appalachian mountains of Tennessee during the Great Depression.
“Little Tree” as his grandparents call him is shown how to hunt and survive in the mountains, to respect nature in the Cherokee Way, taking only what is needed, leaving the rest for nature to run its course.
Little Tree also learns the often callous ways of the white businessmen and tax collectors, and how Granpa, in hilarious vignettes, scares them away from his illegal attempts to enter the cash economy. Granma teaches Little Tree the joys of reading and education. But when Little Tree is taken away for schooling by whites, we learn of the cruelty meted out to Indian children in an attempt to assimilate them and of Little Tree's perception of the Anglo world and how it differs from the Cherokee Way.
A classic of its era, and an enduring book for all ages, The Education of Little Tree has now been completely re-designed for this twenty-fifth anniversary edition.

第二本英文书，看了将近半年，印第安小男孩小树和爷爷奶奶在山里的生活，还有一群忠诚的狗狗，在大自然中学习，我想这才是最好的教育。而所谓文明发展出来的产物孤儿院呢，和绿山墙的安妮里一样，只不过是一些虚伪的基督徒想出的挣功绩的借口而已。

优质的童书，就是长大后再读一遍觉得善恶分化过于明显（？

大量不规范英语的使用保留特色的同时使其失去了儿童教育的意义，不宜在适合年龄阅读。单纯怀旧的话还是可以看看的，部分观点，如教育的技术偏向和价值偏向，节俭与吝啬的区别等思考值得借鉴。
