Those colossal lies about "evil" giants are all just a gigantic misunderstanding. You've heard all the stories of mean and bloodthirsty giants: David and Goliath, Jack and the Beanstalk, Gilgamesh. Imagine you found an unconscious giant on the shores of your tiny ravaged village―what would you do? Walter the Giant Storyteller is that unlucky giant, shipwrecked by a violent storm at sea. He awakens to find himself tied down and on trial for his life. He knows he's a good giant, but that doesn't seem to matter to the mob of tiny people holding him captive and responsible for the crimes of all evil giants in history. He has to use his best storytelling skills to convince the crowd that good giants do exist―because if he doesn't, he'll become a giant of legend himself. In this tour de force of storytelling and illustration, Mayes and O'Malley turn the giant genre on its ear.

Pete's dad has very little hair to comb. And what he does have looks a bit, shall we say, scraggly? Every day Pete tries to help him neaten it, but every day the hairs pop right back up. Well, this dad has had enough! One day while shaving, Dad just keeps . . . on . . . going. He shaves off every single one of those scrawny, scraggly hairs. Pete isn't sure what to think of his new, bald Dad. He looks like an egg, or a kickball. Not a Dad. As Pete's parents help him to embrace this shiny, new, bald head, young readers will recognize the challenge of dealing with changes, big and small, in their own lives.
