Description - LAST GIANTS by Francois Place
When Archibald Leopold Ruthmore finds a giant tooth, he becomes convinced that giants are still living somewhere in the world and sets out to find them. In deepest Asia, he discovers a community of giants, who welcome him in and take care of him as he observes their way of life. However, eager to share his discovery, Ruthmore exposes their existence to the rest of the world, and the giants fall victim to curiosity, thoughtlessness and greed. Illustrated with water-colours, this tale is set in the 1800s with a moral very relevant to our own times. The author aims to capture the excitement of unknown lands waiting to be discovered that was so characteristic of this era. The book has won three major awards in France.
