Knopf includes George's Marvelous Medicine and Fantastic Mr. Fox in its roster of handsomely redesigned hardcover Roald Dahl reissues.

Both feature Quentin Blake's original illustrations and include an interview with the author. (June)

From School Library Journal
Grade 2-4-Richard E. Grant performs this reading of Roald Dahl's tale (Puffin, pap. 1998) with an appropriately British accent. Fully-voiced, the production is expressive and pleasing, making a great story an even better read-aloud. As George seeks a cure for his grandmother's grumpiness, his creative elixir produces surprising results. Listeners will appreciate the humor, suspense, and resolution in this silly plot so typical of Dahl's writing. Appropriate for listening centers, reading classes, literature studies and general circulation, the length and reading level of this title will be appreciated by those who work with reluctant readers. Consider this purchase essential for libraries with audio collections.

Kari's Highlight Reel on Books,
By Kari Johnson (Lansing, MI United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: George's Marvelous Medicine (Audio Cassette)
GEORGE'S MAVELOUS MEDICINE George's Marvelous Medicine is about a boy who has to deal with his old, ugly, skinny, grandmother. George couldn't deal with his grandmother any more. He came up with a plan to make a marvelous medicine. The ingredients he used were horseradish sauce, toothpaste, shaving soap, nail polish, hair remover, shoe cleaner, deodorant spray, lipstick, floor polish, and many other things.

George's Marvellous Medicine, Audiocassette,
By Elasti-Mom (Ottawa, Ontario) - See all my reviews
This review is from: George's Marvellous Medicine (Audio Cassette)
I listened to this cassette while driving my 7 year old son to school, which is about a 20 minute drive each way. We both were drawn into the plot immediately and stayed with it as it grew, and grew. My son looked forward to hearing the next installment as we drove. We laughed and groaned all through the book. Richard Grant, who read the story, was wonderful, giving voices to the various characters. I highly recommend it for any car trip.

This review is from: Georges Marvelous Medicine (Paperback)
We like George's Marvelous Medicine because, George makes a medicine for his grandmother because her other medicine did not work. Also because, how creative he was. He puts in shaving cream, animal pills, and other stuff like that. He gives it to his grandmother and .... Oh you do not want to know what happans nects, but if you do want to know read the book and find out.
