The Giant

The Giant, Tereza Šiklová, Baobab, 2021, 56 pages, Illustrations: Tereza Šiklová

The main character is a slow giant. He starts his day with work, continues with a walk and ends with rest — just like us, except during his day the four seasons follow one another. He moves so slowly that no one notices him, even when he passes right in front of office windows. He prefers nature to the bustling city. Let’s take a moment to slow down with him and savour life, maybe the world will seem bigger and more fun!
