As a teacher of English Education for 8th Grade Students, I encourage you to READ THE BOOK, take notes, use the strategies that I am sure your English/Language teacher has already prepped you including - comparing and contrasting, character analyzation, story mapping, hexagon diagramming, cause and effect, etc. Pay close attention to how your own life might be reflected in this story and select something you can write about. If I were your teacher, I would be very disappointed to learn you were on line - asking people to 'write' an essay for you. Who is going to get the benefit from this adventure? Who will have the life-long valuable lesson learned? Come on, you can do this. You'll be a better student for it.

1) Read the book. If it's nice outside, you don't have to feel deprived about missing out on the outdoors. Heck, this book is even good beach reading. Wear your sunscreen.
2) Think about the book.
3) Think about things in the book you are familiar with in your own life.
4) Take notes on 2) and 3).
5) Write your paper.
The assignment was apparently that you would do the above and it would be a personal response. 250 words isn't much to write, either; it should only take a few hours of your time to write.

I think it is significant that it is a metaphor and not a simile. Women are not like trees. They are trees. Men are not like wind. They are wind. There is a TV show called Men in Trees and I have always thought the name of the show referred to that metaphor. That is not really relevant. Just thought it was interesting and wondering if that was where the teacher got the idea for the assignment.

My God Man, Its a great novel! I am currently around the corner for Eatonville. Your joshing me, like they did Sam Bonner over his mule.
I got a good topic, relate the pear tree metaphor to your own sexual awakening. That's always a grabber.

All you do is name something that happened in your life that's similar to something that happened in the book. By the time you have described both events, you'll have over 300 words (one page, double spaced, 10 point font.

I'm sorry honey, but I already went through that hell and ain't doing it again. Recommend that you do it yourself, no offense.
And, um, didn't your teacher have a more specific topic? Because that's REALLY general... my teacher would shoot herself before giving us that much leeway.
And really, 250 words isn't much compared to the usual 5-7 page single-typed requirements.

What? You want us to write it for you? How do you expect to learn anything if you ask other people to do things for you. The whole point of life is to LEARN! Everything you see, touch, smell, taste, feel, hear is to be experienced and learned. So get busy sweetheart and start experiencing life!
