Happy Holidays Book Giveaway!
The lovely folks at Candlewick have given me a copy of The Secret History of Giants to give to one of you!
This is a gorgeous little book that makes for a perfect gift for the New Year.
"For thousands of years we, the Order of the Golden Quills, have chronicled and collected knowledge and wisdom of the Secret Folk, those races spoken of in legend but little known in our time. Here we present to you our work on one such race of Secret Folk--the mighty Giants. Explore their secrets, discover their lore, and learn where you might seek out the noble Great Folk...for they might be nearer than you think." (Back Cover)
So just leave me a comment telling me who is your favourite Giant in literature! I will randomly draw a winner next Tuesday! (12/23)

My favorite to read about would probably be Goliath. Thanks for the chance! This looks like an interesting book.
My favorite giant from literature is the big friendly giant from The BFG by Roald Dahl :D
How about a half-giant? Hagrid! I think my kids would like to peruse this book!
I like the Rock Giants from The Never Ending Story myself. But oh, that book cover! My fingers are itching to touch it--beautiful artwork!
