Once upon a time there was a huge family of children, and they were terribly, terribly naughty …

The Brown children are back, and they're naughtier than ever! This time, they have feigned illness and been taken to hospital … but with the no-nonsense, magical Nurse Matilda running the show, they have little chance of keeping up their antics for long!

This highly collectable new edition of a timeless classic is packed with episode after episode of mischief, mayhem and hilarity, all accompanied by Edward Ardizzone's beautiful original illustrations.

From the series that inspired the much-loved film Nanny McPhee, starring Emma Thompson and Colin Firth, Nurse Matilda Goes to Hospital overflows with naughtiness, wit and timeless humour – the perfect book for mischief-makers both young and old!
