Book Description

May 27, 1982 0140503838 978-0140503838
When the Selfish Giant builds a high wall round his lovely garden to keep the children out, the North Wind blows, the Frost comes and the Snow dances through the trees. The Giant wonders why Spring never comes to his cold, white garden. Then one day the Giant looks out to see a most wonderful sight...Oscar Wilde's much-loved fairy-tale is brought to life again with beautiful illustrations by Michael Foreman and Freire Wright.

5.0 out of 5 stars A little book with a big heart, October 5, 2010
This review is from: The Selfish Giant (Paperback)
This little book has it all and it shouldn't really be described as a "children's story". I think it has a message for both young and old. And it's full of emotions. I agree with another reviewer that you might need a handkerchief or two after you've read this. I would recommend this for any family. It's a little gem.
