George's Marvellous Medicine

Book Review by: Mej1    

Original Author: Roald Dahl
George totally despises his grandmother. He thinks her a witch, (and so does she because she says she has got some power
to tell secrets, that would make your hair stand straight up on end and your eyes pop out of their sockets, which made George want to run away) and he wants to get his revenge. It’s nearly time to give granny her medicine but this time George doesn’t give her the proper one but his own marvellous medication… This book is funny, exciting and a bit frightening with a brilliant twist or two. Another of Roald Dahl’s modern classic and a brilliant read all children and adults alike. Criticism: I didn’t really like the idea of grandma shrinking into absolutely nothing. Instead, I think she should have shrunk to the size of a doll and she was given to a little girl as a present. Then, it would have been more amusing and rather thrilling so the book would finish of really well. Rating: 8/ 10.
