For example, ###### the novel "A Tree Grows ###### Brooklyn," about an immigrant family ###### New York City in the ###### 1900s. The tree growing through ###### sidewalk in front of their ###### is part of both the ###### and the theme. It thrives ###### its harsh surroundings, much like ###### main character Francine as she ###### of age. The tree is ###### down years later, but a ###### green shoot survives.]]>
