Fearsome Giants

Giants appear in mythology from around the world. Sometimes they are simply large people. Other times they are as big as a mountain! Some giants--or part-giants--are characters who are good; others are evil or villainous! In this book, readers explore stories of giants from all over the world as well as in popular culture. Full-color images bring these fantasy creatures to life, and fact boxes add even more information or explain complex vocabulary terms. The high-interest content supports knowledge building, a key component of the science of reading.
