Explanation:
Oscar Wilde, the brilliant wit and playwright, in his 'The Selfless Giant' described the transition of a selfish giant into a selfless one. The Giant had a large, lovely garden with soft green grass, beautiful flowers and trees. The children visited the garden everyday. But, the Giant who returned to the garden, after staying with his friend for seven years, prevented the children from playing in the garden. Seeing the board put up by the Giant, "Trespassers will be prosecuted" the children became sad, having no place to play.
When the spring came all over the country, it was still winter in the Giant's garden. The selfish Giant became worried since, the only people who enjoyed there in his garden were the North wind and Hail. One day, the Giant saw a wonderful scene in his garden, in every tree he could see there was a little child and the trees were so glad and had covered themselves with blossoms. But in one corner it was winter still. There stood a little boy, who couldn't climb up the tree. The Giant put the little boy on the tree and the child kissed the Giant. That melted the Giant and the Giant turned a selfless one.
