Then one day Emma found out that she was pregnant. 9 months later she had twins.
While these twins were still young - they turned to a life of crime. Robbing banks and shooting anyone who dared enter the forest. Their names were Bob (Branch) and Jessie (Leaf) Tree.
By the age of 8 the Tree brothers reigned fear over that whole area - prompting people to erect signs to warn others of the "Small Trees".
So powerful was the legend - that those signs still exist today.
I read it somewhere on the internet.
Ok, that's just plain funny.
I am adopting it as the official reason for the sign.
