the selfish giant

by oscar wilde

Every afternoon as they were coming from school the children used to go and play in the Giants garden

It was a large lovely garden with soft green grass Here and there over the grass stood beautiful flowers like stars and there were twelve peach trees that in the spring time broke out into delicate blossoms of pink and pearl and in the autumn bore rich fruit The birds sat on the trees and sang so sweetly that the children used to stop their games in order to listen to them How happy we are here they cried to each other

Good Luck!!!
