description: There is a Secret Giant in Gableview who has hands the size of tabletops legs as long as drainpipes and feet as big as rowing boats. But little Billy thinks the Giant is just a tall tale that his grandad likes to tell. According to Grandad the Giant keeps the bears away when they go camping and rescues Billys favorite kite when it gets tangled up in the tallest tree. Grandad swears the Giant is real but Billys not buying it. Why has he never seen the giant before? Why does the Giant stay hidden? Grandad knows why: People are afraid of things that look different. When Billy suddenly finds himself face-to-face with the Giant he runs away in fearand hurts the Giants feelings. But now hes got an opportunity to make it up to him and just maybe to be friends with the nicest guy in town.
