Resumen del libro
In the quiet moments before bedtime - When the boy's grandma would sit beside him and read - When all was silent, except for the turn of a page, or the careful ticking of the clock - The boy would notice his grandma's hands. When the boy's grandma dies, he finds all of her old building materials in the garden shed - the girders and cement and bricks. At night, through wind, snow and rain, he builds a structure in the garden.
A giant iron woman with soft tissue hands. And when he's finished...she comes to life! Her giant hands swoop down and scoop the boy off the ground. The adventure begins...
