Examples of conflict in the selfish giant

Hope this helps.  Children are naturally good and not wicked.  The author implies that this goodness can be transferred into the world around them.  People need to look at things more through the eyes of a child - simplistic and not so dreary all of the time.  Try to see the good in the bad around us.  Try to remember that redemption has a great message in this story.  The author is supposedly writing from a christian point of view and even symbolizes Christ with the child.  The garden, the paradise, etc are about heaven or what he would think heaven would look like.  This story also uses nature - the plants, animals, etc... and even the weather - to show that all of that is ordered by God.  The bible even states that if his people will not praise Him, then the rocks will cry out.  This story deals with not being selfish and loving others.  Charity is another word for Love in the Bible.  Charity is really unselfish love.  Here are some more ideas of conflict in the story:

children longingly looking into the garden but having to exist on the dirty roads

Spring refused to come

The children slowly were sneaking into the garden, and Spring followed them
