Produktbeschreibung

A taste of her own medicine.

George is alone in the house with Grandma. The most horrid, grizzly old grunion of a grandma ever. She needs something stronger than her usual medicine to cure her grouchiness. A special grandma medicine, a remedy for everything. And George knows just what to put into it. Grandma's in for the surprise of her life-and so is George, when he sees the results of his mixture! 

Leseprobe


A magic medicine it shall be!

George sat himself down at the table in the kitchen. He was shaking a little. Oh, how he hated Grandma! He really hated that horrid old witchy woman. And all of a sudden he had a tremendous urge to do something about her. Something whopping. Something absolutely terrific. A real shocker. A sort of explosion.

I m not going to be frightened by her, he said softly to himself. But he was frightened. And that s why he wanted suddenly to explode her away.

Well not quite away. But he did want to shake the old woman up a bit.

Very well, then. What should it be, this whopping terrific exploding shocker for Grandma?

As George sat there pondering this interesting problem, his eye fell upon the bottle of Grandma s brown medicine standing on the sideboard. Rotten stuff it seemed to be and it didn t do her the slightest bit of good. She was always just as horrid after she d had it as she d been before.

So-ho! thought George suddenly. I shall make her a new medicine, one that is so strong and so fierce and so fantastic it will either cure her completely or blow off the top of her head.

Here we go, then! cried George, jumping up from the table. A magic medicine it shall be!

Grandma

I m going shopping in the village, George s mother said to George on Saturday morning. So be a good boy and don t get into mischief.

This was a silly thing to say to a small boy at any time. It immediately made him wonder what sort of mischief he might get into.

And don t forget to give Grandma her medicine at eleven o clock, the mother said. Then out she went, closing the back door behind her.

Grandma, who was dozing in her chair by the window, opened one wicked little eye and said, Now you heard what your mother said, George. Don t forget my medicine.

No, Grandma, George said.

And just try to behave yourself for once while she s away.

Yes, Grandma, George said.

George was bored to tears. He didn t have a brother or a sister. His father was a farmer, and the farm they lived on was miles away from anywhere, so there were never any children to play with. He was tired of staring at pigs and hens and cows and sheep. He was especially tired of having to live in the same house as that grizzly old grunion of a grandma. Looking after her all by himself was hardly the most exciting way to spend a Saturday morning.

You can make me a nice cup of tea for a start, Grandma said to George. That ll keep you out of mischief for a few minutes.

Yes, Grandma, George said.

George couldn t help disliking Grandma. She was a selfish grumpy old woman. She had pale brown teeth and a 

Autoreninfo

Roald Dahl (1916-1990) was born in Wales of Norwegian parents. He spent his childhood in England and, at age eighteen, went to work for the Shell Oil Company in Africa. When World War II broke out, he joined the Royal Air Force and became a fighter pilot. At the age of twenty-six he moved to Washington, D.C., and it was there he began to write. His first short story, which recounted his adventures in the war, was bought by The Saturday Evening Post, and so began a long and illustrious career.

After establishing himself as a writer for adults, Roald Dahl began writing childrenâ€Ös stories in 1960 while living in England with his family. His first stories were written as entertainment for his own children, to whom many of his books are dedicated.

Roald Dahl is now considered one of the most beloved storytellers of our time. Although he passed away in 1990, his popularity continues to increase as his fantastic novels, including James and the Giant Peach, Matilda, The BFG, and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, delight an ever-growing legion of fans.
