Gianfranco's nomination story

The Corn Factory is a Tiny Home for tiny invalids and their parents, while they wait to return to their own homes. The factory creates tiny objects out of cornmeal for them. These little animals, fairies and monsters are ugly in an adult's eye, but beautiful for our little patients. Gianfranco is the expert when it comes to making them. Every time a child asks for one more... and one more! we make it for them. If they ask, "will you come back to play with me?" it shows that we have managed to create a Tiny Home together.
