#8. They Might Be Giants (1971)

Storyline: They Might be Giants chronicles the adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson in modern-day New York City.

Jonas, who feels different from his appointed parents and his two best friends, Fiona and Asher, finds himself assigned to the rare position of Receiver of Memories, trained by a mentor (later called The Giver), who telepathically imparts memories of the world before The Ruin.
