Why don't pine trees lose their leaves in winter?

---A long time ago, winter came, there was a very sick bird, it couldn't fly to the warm south for the winter, so it told his family, don't worry about me, I will find a place to spend the winter, let's next spring goodbye. The bird came to a tall oak tree and asked him if he could winter in his leaves, but it was an arrogant and cold-blooded oak tree, and he refused. Poplars, willows, elms, plane trees, they all refused, and later, the sky began to snow, and the birds, with their last hope, came to a pine tree to try their luck. The pine tree said, I can't give you much protection, all I have is the tiny needles that leak, but, well, you can stay. Bird was more than happy, he lived through the winter, and the next spring, Bird was happily reunited with her family. God saw all this, and he decided to punish the selfish trees well, and as punishment, all the trees from then on will lose all their leaves in winter, except the pine trees that protect the birds.

A 10-year-old, with his own ingenuity, roams the world of grown-ups, from one state to another, from western farms to eastern cities. This story just suits me so well. I've always wanted to write a road novel, but it didn't work, and this story made me want to try again.
