About the Book:
There are giants in the land.
And it has always been so as far as anyone can remember. They work side-by-side with the people, and whenever there is a job too difficult or a threat too great they are there to step in. The giants’ presence gives the townspeople a special confidence about life. But they have become much more dependant on the giants than they realize. One morning the people discover the giants have mysteriously disappeared. Fear and panic grip the town. Someone must find them and bring them back!
Thomas, a young farmer, volunteers and sets out alone on a great journey of danger and discovery. Thomas learns the true nature of giants and what it means for him and his people. Join Thomas in his timeless rite of passage and learn what it means to become something more than you have been, why it is necessary in life, and how to do it.

My opinion:
I give this book 4 stars out of 5. I enjoyed this book because it reminded me of the fairy tales that my mom used to read me every night before bed when I was a child. It was a simple, entertaining but interesting book and it only took me a day to read it. My 12 year old daughter is reading it now and she said it kind of reminds her of a simpler form of Pilgrim's Progress. To see what other's are saying about Giants in the Land click here.
