Summary
Iris had found it in the house's library earlier, hiding quietly in a corner, shoved between old children's books. It was just as dusty as the others, but its lack of a title had caught her eye. She thought that it might at least be written in it, but inside there were only four short stories.
Now, van Zieks was flipping through its pages, skimming over the words like Iris did that afternoon. 'Would you not rather read this yourself?' he asked, closing the cover. 'You are... you're eleven years old now, and I am sure you wouldn't need me to read it to you.'
'But it is your book, isn't it?' Iris said. 'Or, rather, your sister-in-law's...'
After Hurley's little accident, Iris finds herself staying at her uncle's house for a few days, wondering how she could possibly fit in its grand and stately walls. But there, she finds a book of stories penned by her mother. According to van Zieks, she had written it for him decades ago... so, of course, Iris must make him read it to her.
