Description
A Short Story About Giants by Richard Crowe is a great recounting of a conversation between a grandfather and his grandson. This is a story not only about making a connection with your loved ones, but also showing them that history can be found in more than just history books. The grandfather?s goal is to keep his grandson, Cody, interested in learning something new all the time...I remember learning just the basic story of David and Goliath. The way the grandfather related the story made such an impact on Cody, the grandson, that he will remember it for the rest of his life. It also sparked his interest in learning more about giants. His grandfather is savvy enough to use this chance to teach Cody parts of the Bible and an ongoing history that we rarely pay attention to. Cody?s interest was not the only one that was piqued during this brief history of giants. I found myself doing a lot of research after I finished reading it...This short story is only about 13 pages long, but it packs a powerful punch. There is even room to throw in a bit of a love story in the telling. This is not a book that will be easily forgotten, and I look forward to reading it to my grandchildren to see what kind of questions it may spark from them...I give this book 4 OUT OF 4 STARS. I wish we would all find a way to teach our children a little history every day...This grandfather found a way to inspire Cody to take an interest and ask more questions. If we make history interesting, we would want to learn more, and learn it better.
