"The Selfish Giant" is a poignant tale by Oscar Wilde about a giant who owns a beautiful garden. He hoards it selfishly, refusing to let children play there. As a result, his garden becomes perpetually winter, stripped of life and joy. One day, he finds a small boy who has snuck into the garden, and the giant's heart begins to change. Through his journey of transformation, the giant learns the value of love, generosity, and the joy that comes from sharing. The story beautifully illustrates themes of redemption and the importance of kindness in overcoming isolation. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
