Recently, students at a primary school in Zhuji, Zhejiang province wrote a letter to their city mayor, asking him to plant a big tree outside their school. Instead, the students were thrilled to see not one but a total of 26 adult ginkgo trees planted outside their classroom window after the mayor received their letter.

The students explained that they hoped to have a big tree in the schoolyard, but they couldn't wait for a young tree to grow bigger because they are about to graduate in one year’s time. Fortunately, the mayor's response to their plea went above and beyond in considering this requirement.
