Description
The Selfish Giant, a beautifully illustrated fairy-tale by Oscar Wilde, tells the story of a giant who builds a high wall around his garden to keep children out. The North Wind, Frost and Snow all visit the garden, but Spring never comes. One day, a wonderful sight appears, bringing new life to the giant's cold, white space. Beautiful illustrations by Michael Foreman and Freire Wright bring this beloved tale to life. This new edition features a new design and a fresh look at a timeless story. With its simple yet powerful story, The Selfish Giant is a worthwhile read for anyone who loves fairy-tales and beautiful illustrations.
