      Once upon a time, there was a giant called Tiny. Now that might seem a strange name for a giant, for Tiny was indeed a giant. But at the top of the mountain and above the clouds, in the land where giants lived, Tiny was the smallest giant in the land. So all of the other giants called him ‘Tiny'. Tiny is sick and tired of being called names. It makes him so mad when the other giants pick on him, in fact, it's starting to make him worried he's not really a giant at all! Then, one day, he ventures down through the clouds and finds something he'd never expected to find: a friend.
