Summary

"Three Good Giants" by François Rabelais, adapted by John Dimitry, is a fun story that tells about the adventures of the giants Grandgousier, Gargantua, and Pantagruel. It starts way back in time, in the "Year of Medlars," when people grew into giants after eating too many medlars. Chalbroth was the first giant, and then came King Grandgousier, who was always happy and kind. The story shows the funny, weird, and heartwarming lives of these giants, making readers feel like they're in a magical world where even giants have feelings like us.

About the Author

François Rabelais was a French writer who has been called the first great French prose author. A humanist of the French Renaissance and Greek scholar, he attracted opposition from both Protestant theologian John Calvin and from the hierarchy of the Catholic Church. Though in his day he was best known as a physician, scholar, diplomat, and Catholic priest, later he became better known as a satirist for his depictions of the grotesque, and for his larger-than-life characters.
