No one likes a grumpy grandma who is complaining all the time. While most of us would ignore and live with it, George decides to do something about it and achieves some wacky results. Summary of the Book George’s parents have gone out for a day and he is more than thrilled about it. He loves his parents, but is growing tired of his grouchy grandma’s ways. He needs to put a stop to this behaviour before she digs into his sanity. So, he plans on making a special medicine for her and intends on replacing her medicine with his recipe. He gathers everything that he can find, not bothered about how bizarre the ingredients are or whether they might just kill Grandma. He just wants her to stop nagging and he is sure that his perfect medicine will mend her. He cooks all the ingredients in the kitchen and creates a substance that looks exactly like grandma’s medicine in texture and colour. Thrilled with his handiwork, George gives Grandma her medicine on time. What do you suppose George’s marvellous medicine will do for Grandma? Read this comical story to find out.
