George’s Marvellous Medicine is one of Roald Dahl’s most brilliant tales of naughtiness.

Most grandmas are kind and helpful ladies. Not George’s grandma. She’s a grumpy and grizzly old grouch and George wants to teach her a lesson. So when it’s time for her medicine, George concocts a bubbling, frothing, marvelous mixture, which is guaranteed to send her through the roof . . .
