Jake and the Giant Hand

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