This is a story about Luka, a little boy who becomes a GIANT.
Every year he doubled in height and the villagers, only two feet tall, worried
that he would destroy his village. They built a house in the woods and a big
chair for him where he could sit by the road and do no damage. Luka was
miserable sitting by himself but one day a big dog came along and changed
everything! This is a story about how it feels to be on the outside looking
in… about the frustration that comes when you feel different and about how
family can come in many forms… even in the shape of a gigantic dog!
A life-long Manitoban, Adrian Hawaleshka has been writing for as long as he can remember. With the birth of his son Luka and the support of his wife Joleen, Adrian was inspired to write his first children's book. The three of them live in Winnipeg where Adrian is an Assistant Professor of Anesthesiology at University of Manitoba.
