The first in a series of scary tall tales from award-winning childrenâs novelist Philippa Dowding.
Why is Grandpa acting so weird? And why are there so many giant flies?
Jake spends every summer on his grandpaâs farm. But this year, things are a little weird. First, there are huge flies everywhere. Second, Grandpa is acting kind of funny. And third, Jakeâs friend Kate keeps trying to scare him with creepy stories. Last yearâs tale about the swamp creature was bad enough, but this yearâs story about a hand that someone found in a farmerâs field is even worse. And it wasnât just any hand either. It was a giantâs hand!
It might just be the creepiest story of all. It canât be real. Can it?
