Summary

Oleg is a junior giant who just doesn't fit in with his village. He cries because he is lonely, but this floods the village. There's no getting away from it: Oleg is different. 

When the Lord Mayor tells Oleg that the villagers want a proper giant, who "Raaah's" a lot and rips up trees and eats cows, Oleg knows that he can't be like that, so he has to leave. While he is away, a "proper" giant, Igor, moves into the village and behaves exactly as a "proper" giant should. The villagers are horrified and the Lord Mayor wants Oleg's help. Can he save them from the "proper" giant? 

If you knew Oleg, what would you tell him to do?

A great short story with a moral message for all

I really enjoyed this story - its funny, interesting and very well performed. It would be great just as a read story but the excellent voices and sound effects add so much. Great for younger readers but even adults would enjoy listening along. All the characters are clearly separated by the talented narrator with interesting speech patterns and accents / mannerisms and read at a nice relaxing pace. My favorites were the wizard and Igor. It also has a moral message that nearly everyone can relate to and would be a excellent teaching story for kids, I'd highly recommend this book and would love to hear more from the writer and narrator.
