Summary: Gorgeous book in every way
Comment: The Giant is a masterpiece, combining beatiful illustrations with evocative language to create a book that children will love and adults won't mind reading over and over, even if the final page brings tears every time. The story follows a child who has lost her mother as she gradually comes to recognize her father as "the giant" who is taking care of her.

The book will be loved by all children, but will be especially important to children who have lost loved ones as they come to recognize the Giants in their own lives. It would make a wonderful father's day gift for people of all ages who want to recognize their own fathers as Giants.

Summary: Beautiful, Moving book
Comment: The Giant is a gorgeous book. The language and illustrations work together to create a mood and a story that children will love, and adults will be glad to read over and over again. For any child who may be suffering the loss of someone important, the story brings the additional gift of gently suggesting a way of finding the "true giants" in our lives, those people who are constant and steady for us because they love us. I've read this book many times, and the last page still brings me to tears every time.

A great Fathers day gift for people of all ages who want to let their fathers know they are "Giants."

Summary: Like Content and Drawings
Comment: The Giant is beautifully illustrated and describes past farm life with clarity. My granddaughter loves this book (as do I). I'm pleased it has been added at our local library.
