About the book
About The Little Giant-Tamer Tales of Fable & Fantasy
During one of his many sea voyages, the author stopped at Port-Etienne in Mauretania, Africa, where the famous French fantasy writer, Antoine de Saint-Exup ry, had once lived. That posthumous "encounter" prompted these seven fantasy stories. Written for children, parents, and grandparents alike, these fables are unexpected, delicate, and full of humor, turning familiar situations upside down, asking interesting questions, and educating and entertaining without moralizing. Included are: "The Loneliest Thing in the World," "A Tale from the Country Where Everything Was Done Eight Times Over," "The Eat-All Dragon," "The Little Giant-Tamer," "The Tale of the Lying Apothecary," "The New Year's Eve," and "The Tale of the Little Fish That Fished a Fisherman."
