The Gentle Giant — scene 1

Once upon a time, in a deep Estonian forest filled with tall pine trees and soft moss, there lived a very special giant. His name was Kind Giant, and he was the gentlest soul you could ever imagine. Every morning, he would wake up in his cozy forest home and tend to the woodland creatures. He would carefully move fallen branches so the rabbits could hop through, and he would cup his enormous hands to give the deer fresh water from the stream. The Kind Giant had wild brown hair that danced in the forest breeze, and his green eyes sparkled with kindness. But even though he had such a big heart, he felt very lonely. You see, being so much bigger than everyone else made it hard to make friends. He would sit by his favorite oak tree, holding a tiny wildflower in his massive hands, and wonder if anyone would ever want to be his friend.
