“I remembered, Mama had said there were giants, strong and tall, and that one was looking after me. I needed to see one, to believe.”
A young girl, grieving the loss of her mother, strives to find the giant that her mother promised would look after her. But there are no such things as giants-not real giants . . . or are there? She wants so desperately to believe that it seems as if shes always just missed one. Can she dream her larger-than-life guardian into reality? While she dreams, life on the farm with her father goes on. With lyrical prose her story unfolds-the seasons change, crops are planted, summer turns to fall, and the harvest is brought in. Throughout, one constant remains. The young girl does have a giant looking out for her. Hes been with her all along.

The Giant is a part of the Auracle line from Auryn Inc. The app is based on Claire Ewart’s book by the same name.

Key features include
▶ Personalisation of picture, voice and text:
▶ Kids can become their own narrator or listen to their parents narrate the book.
▶ Interactivity allows kids to personalize the sentence, create new action words and sharpen their vocabulary skills

Features on each page
▶ Image and word association vocabulary builder - when an image is touched the associated word is spoken and the written word displayed.
▶ Karaoke effect - when a word is spoken during narration then the word is highlighted.
▶ Touch a word to hear it being spoken.

Three ways to read the book.
▶ "Read to me" - Listen to the narrated story while the text is displayed Karaoke style. After the narration finishes on a page the child can interact with objects till they are ready to move to the next page.
▶ "Read myself" - There is no narration but the child can touch a word to hear it being spoken aloud.
▶ "Auto Play" - same as "Read to Me" except the page advances automatically once the narration is finished. Useful for those long car rides when you want the child to have a complete book experience.
