When the Selfish Giant decides to build a wall around his garden to prevent the children from playing in it, it becomes barren and stuck in perpetual winter. It takes a wonderful event and the heart of a young boy for him to realize the error of his ways.

A classic tale for children, `The Selfish Giant' is presented here with all of Oscar Wilde's other fairy stories - `The Happy Prince', `The Nightingale and the Rose', `The Devoted Friend', `The Remarkable Rocket', `The Young King', `The Birthday of the Infanta', `The Fisherman and His Soul' and `The Star-Child' - brought to life by Philip Waechter's bright and imaginative illustrations.
