11. KEY POINT
Giant had a large beautiful garden. He was selfish.
While he was away to visit a friend, children used to play in the garden.
When the Giant returned, he was angry to see the children playing there.
He built a high wall around the garden so that the children could not come in.
As a result, the trees refused to bear flowers and fruits. Spring refused to visit his garden.
Only the Frost, the Hail ,the North wind and Snow danced there the whole year.
Once the selfish giant helped a little boy to sit on a tree branch, he noticed the miracle.
The tree was laden with flowers even in winter. The boy was Christ himself.
He bore nail marks on his palms and feet. He kissed the giant whose heart was changed.
He let the children play freely in his garden.
At last, the little boy took the giant to his own garden, the Paradise as a reward.
