A story of a boy who created a marvellous medicine to take revenge from his evil grandmother. It’s very interesting because it’s tell how George created a medicine that make the grand mom so tall.

It is a fiction book. It is about a mean grandma and George. He made medicine and his grandma got bigger and bigger and broke the roof. I would ask my for friends to read it because they'll like the Grandma being big.

I love the part when George makes the medicine for his grandma and she becomes enormous and her head goes out of the roof. Children would love this book because it is very funny.

This story was fiction. I kind of likes Grandma because she's really sneaky and scares George's socks off! George gives her payback by making a medicine out of everything he can find in the house, then he makes it brown like her medicine, gives it to her and she grows bigger than a sky scraper!

This book was hilarious! Grandma was a horrible character but she made me laugh and when the chickens grew long legs and necks etc I found it very funny. This is a great story that everyone will love.

This book was amazing! I thought it was brilliant how George got his own back on his mean grandmother, who was like a witch! I loved the pictures of her, especially at the beginning of the book, when you can really appreciate how nasty she was. George is very creative in how he makes his medicine and I think it was very funny how his father and mother reacted to the chaos it caused!

This book is about George finding all sorts of disgusting things to put into his grandma's medicine. This is a fiction book. The giant horse is my favourite character because I like giant animals. I want my friends to definitely read this book.

It was great that George felt he had the courage to make a medicine to give to his nan. She wasn't a very nice lady.
