“A Giant
That
s Mean
is a Very
Bad Thing”
Story: Mac Wilkey
Illustrations: Oliver Weiss
(Athse Publishing, Canada, 2006)

 

 

Now on YouTube:

 

Goliath has another thing coming if he thinks he can bully David whose sling and faith are always by his side. Hold on tight Goliath - you're in for a big surprise - small can be powerful! Humourous and inspired text adorned with delightful illustrations to captivate the smallest and the strongest.

 


“A giant that’s mean
is a very bad thing!
He’s worse than a pest, and he bothers the king!”

 


“I hate to throw rocks,
but I’ll just have a fling
for I found five pebbles
that just fit my sling.”

 


“But David you’re small
and the armor won’t fit.
The giant won’t fall
just by courage and grit.”

 “You might make him laugh and fall in a pit,
but you hardly make half
of him. Why not just quit?”

 


“I’ve hardly got started.
I’ve only begun
The king’s feeling sad
so this job must be done.”

“He jests, and he taunts,
but he’s really no fun.
He’s big, and he’s mean
but not yet has he won!”

 


As David draws nearer,
the giant just mocks.
The big guy just laughs
at the sight of the rocks.

 


But just with the sling
and a prayer, he knocks
Goliath right out
of his shoes and his socks!

 


The giant is sleeping
—the weak beat the strong.
And David is smiling
—he’s beaten King Kong!

 


And God who was with him
—right there all along,
showed us His mighty
—right wins over wrong.

 


The End
