Perfect for you if...

You love character-driven stories where a protagonist's arrival transforms an entire community for the better.
You're drawn to gentle magical realism rooted in real places and real faith, not fantasy spectacle.
You appreciate books that explore what it means to belong when you're fundamentally different from everyone else.

Maybe not for you if...

You want plot-driven narratives with high stakes and constant conflict rather than quiet moments of connection.
You're sceptical of faith narratives and prefer stories that keep religion at arm's length.
You're looking for fast-paced reads; this one moves at the unhurried pace of small-town life.

About this book

Gabriel Fisher was born an orphan, weighing eighteen pounds and measuring twenty-seven inches long. In Lakota, Wisconsin, he walks at eight months, communicates with animals, and displays extraordinary athletic talent. When his older brother dies, Gabriel is taken in by his devout Amish grandparents, who hide him from the outside world. Hiding becomes impossible when Gabriel reaches nearly eight feet tall. At seventeen, a local football coach spots him working in a hay field. This discovery sets in motion events that transform Gabriel's life and the lives of everyone around him. Life, and Death, and Giants explores themes of faith, family, buried secrets, and everyday miracles.
