George's Marvelous Medicine

Title: George's Marvelous Medicine

Author: Roald Dahl

Rating: ****

Review: This is not the best Dahl book, but it is funny. Children with mean grandparents will love the solution George thinks up for fixing her meanness. I doubt this book would be published today, due to the ingredients in the "medicine". Parents could talk to their kids about what medicine is and why we don't play with it (or make it). Parents could also discuss other solutions to the mean grandma problem, and George's parent's reactions to the medicine. It's a cute book.
