author:Say it and listen

"The Selfish Giant" is a fairy tale created by the British aestheticist writer Oscar Wilde, telling the story of the selfish giant who goes from selfishness to generosity and finally enters heaven under the guidance of God.

The unusual giant stayed in the house of the cannibal for seven years before returning to his lonely, desolate home and facing the life of a deserted bachelor. Before he got home, he saw that the garden in his home had become a paradise for the children, and the giant felt violated, and he could not help but be angry and drove away all the children. Since then, his garden has been in hibernation for many years, covered by white snow. The giant didn't go to the garden, just sat in a rocking chair and burned the fire in the room. One day, the giant looked through the window and saw a tree with white flowers, and he was deeply moved by the scene. Excited to come to the garden. A beautiful child was found crying under a tree. The child was too short to climb the tree to play. The giant gently carried the child to the tree, and the tree was instantly full of white flowers, extremely dazzling. The innocent child kissed the selfish giant, and his heart was touched by the cold and piercing heart of winter. So he knocked down the walls of the garden and played with the children every afternoon. The giant was no longer selfish, and at this time he was as warm as spring and selflessly opened the doors of the garden to the children. But then the giant got older, and he could no longer play with the children. One day he saw his favorite little boy, God, and then the white flowers covered with holiness died under the tree.
