In 1942 the author C. S. Forester asked Roald Dahl to write down some notes about his time in the RAF so that he could shape them into a story. However his notes were so good that they were printed in the Saturday Evening Post just as they were. This was Roald Dahl’s first published work and it made him realise he had a real talent for writing.

Product ID 9780224083898

A brand new hardback edition of Roald Dahl's popular story telling the tale of George and his very special nasty-grandma curing medicine.

George's grandma is a horrid, grizzly, grumpy, selfish old woman with pale brown teeth and a puckered-up mouth like a dog's bottom. She takes a large spoonful of thick brown medicine four times a day, but it doesn't seem to do her any good and is always just as horrid after she's taken it as when she was before. So when George is left alone to look after her one morning, it's just the chance he needs...

"All of a sudden he had a tremendous urge to DO SOMETHING about her. Something WHOPPING."

In this popular Roald Dahl story, George creates a very special medicine to cure his grandma of her nasty habits.

I read this book as a child and really wanted to make my own medicine, but was frightened what would happen if anyone drank it, after what happened in the book! Sarah Clayton
