Year 3: George’s Marvellous Medicine

By Roald Dahl

George's Marvellous Medicine is a funny and imaginative story about a boy called George Kranky, who lives on a farm with his parents and his grumpy grandmother. Tired of her being mean to him, George decides to make a special medicine using all sorts of strange ingredients from around the house. When his grandmother drinks it, something amazing and unexpected happens! The medicine causes lots of hilarious problems, and George and his family have a very exciting adventure.
