"I would rather that you should discover that for yourself," said Mrs. Roby. "If the kernel of an allegory be good, it is worth the trouble of cracking the shell" "Oh! but I hate all trouble," cried Adolphus, "above all, the trouble of thinking!" "Take care, take care," laughed little Laura, "or we shall suspect that you have been caught by Giant Sloth." CHAPTER IV. GIANT SELFISHNESS. "Do you know, mamma," said Laura the next day, as she and her sister sat alone with their mother, the boys being at lessons in the study, "do you know that I did not feel inclined to get up when I was called, but the clock began to strike, which put Giant Sloth into my head, and up I jumped in a minute!" "I am glad that you made such practical use of my little tale," replied Mrs. Roby with a smile. "But mamma, --if I might say something," began Bertha, then hesitated and paused "Say anything that you please, my dear." "I almost wondered at your beginning with only Giant Sloth; that seems such a little fault compared with the great ones of the Probyns. Constantine did not seem hit at all, for he is active enough in mischief" "I repeat that I hit no one," replied her mother. "Oh !--but--you know what I mean, mamma; I should have liked something very-- very--" Bertha's face had a puzzled look, for she knew not how to express her meaning, "I should have liked some story that would have made them know themselves, and hate thenfaults as every one else must hate them!

SINCE THE DAY YOU WERE BORN, there have been giants in your life. Tyrants of immense size who try to exert negative influence over your destiny. Giants try to intimidate you into inaction and apathy. They want to convince you that your past mistakes, family tree, size, and shame will always hold you back. I, too, was born with giants. When I was eight years old, twenty-seven of my relatives were massacred by cult leader Jim Jones in the Jonestown Guyana Tragedy. The shame of my own family history shadowed my life until I discovered the lessons revealed in this book, a searing expose of how our history can influence our legacy. We were made to break the cycle and, just like men and women in the Bible, fiercely face the giants in our lives before they get passed to the next generation. Be A Giant Killer is a knockout punch to what's holding you back from your wildest dreams and best life! "Powerful and impactful! Ed is an incredible man and friend with a very unique personal story. His passion is contagious! He identifies God's dreams for His children and the giants in the way of fulfilling these dreams. This is a must-read for anyone excited to use biblical weapons to help defeat these giants in life and chase their dreams! Get reading and let's go!" -BRUCE TOLLNER, Co-Author of Sidelined with Indianapolis Colts Coach Chuck Pagano/NFL Agent/ Owner Rep 1 which represents Jared Goff, Carson Wentz, Marcus Mariota, Ben Roethlisberger and many others. "In Be A Giant Killer, Ed Norwood equips the reader to be able to readily identify the enemies that hinder us, and then conquer them. Defining the problem well is half the battle. This is gold to those who are ready to be victorious warriors." -BISHOP DALE C. BRONNER, D. MIN., Founder/Senior Pastor, Word of Faith Family Worship Cathedral, Atlanta, GA
