"The Selfish Giant" by S. Saelig Gallagher is a modern reimagining of Oscar Wilde's classic tale. The story follows a giant who hoards his garden, refusing to share it with the children who long to play there. His selfishness brings about perpetual winter within his boundaries, isolating him and plunging his world into desolation. However, when he finally opens his heart and allows the children to enter his garden, the seasons change, and he discovers the joys of love, friendship, and selflessness. Ultimately, the giant learns that true happiness comes from sharing and caring for others. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
