George's Marvellous Medicine

A Roald Dahl classic which fizzes and crackles with magic! Have you ever mixed a horrid potion in the garden or the playground? Now one boy, George, is making the yuckiest potion of all time. Floor polish, animal pills, shaving soap, chillis: they’re all going into the mix! What is this hideous brew? It’s medicine for George’s granny: a slug-crunching bully who loves to torment him. But will it make her horrid temper better? Hmm – Granny is sizzling. She’s swizzling. And now she’s shooting through the roof…

• An all-time classic: one of Dahl’s most famous tales

• A really magical, stimulating pick for growing readers

• Trademark Dahl: wildly funny and fizzing with drama

• Blends a short, simple text with imaginative fireworks
