Book Synopsis

It''s the half term holiday and George Kranky is looking forward to a break from school when a letter from Grandma arrives announcing that she is coming to visit -- that very day! Soon she has taken over George''s bedroom and is making his life miserable with spiteful comments and demands for cups of tea and doses of medicine. George tries to make Grandma better by mixing a new type of medicine for her. Shaving foam, shampoo, lipstick, chilli powder and even brown paint all go into the mixture. The magic medicine makes Grandma grow and grow into a giant until she crashes through the farmhouse roof. Mum and Dad are flabbergasted, but before long Dad comes up with a plan to use the medicine to make giant farm animals -- and a fortune for the Kranky family. It''s up to George to try to recreate his marvellous medicine, but first he needs to remember the ingredients, with a little help from the audience.
