It was very warm last night; I love these very warm nights because I can get up doing something different in the silent night; I went downstairs searching for some fresh air.
I went to the library located in the living room, the biggest one, searching for a brief book to read in the while.
Something I had started and maybe left in the middle of reading.
I spotted George's
I completed it pretty soon. The story the one of George and his disgusting granny.
That granny was absurdly dispotic and poor little Goerge didn't know anymore how to make her granny happy. She was a real general! complaining for everything.
Thinking that his existence that days became a sort of nightmare, the only imagine he could picture in his mind was only one: revenge.
Oh; he didn't want, no, to kill his granny, but he wanted to give her a lesson, after all that lady was horrible!
What to do, so, for realizing his dream? George took a saucepan and then went in the various rooms of his house, picking up and putting into it, everything: they could be lipsticks, lotions for the most diversified problems etc.
Then, Goerge boiled all that things together and when his granny asked for the medicine he was ready to give it to her.
Her granny changed immediately, becoming at the end a real slim giant; but, pity, that, let's put things in this way, her character didn't change at all!
Once returned home, George's parents noticing what was going on were horrified.
The father of George tried the lotion also in their farm's animals and they became giants. Seeing the opportunity of business behind all of it, (giants eggs, much more milk etc) asked to George of creating a new lotion but nothing will work properly and as wanted by mr Kranky; what happened at the end will be the dissolution of George's granny, with joy and happiness of all the family.
The lady was unbearable, although the book leaves the reader with a big question: is it possible the elimination of a poor granny because not too wanted?
Dahl specifies that no one should repeat the recipe! of course, but who looked more surprised and silent was little George. Something horrible happened, I think that the departure of that nasty granny could be classified as a homicide, of course not wanted, but the lady de fact disappeared, so...
Plus, George understood that visited just for some while the land of magic.
Although, maybe there was a pinch of horror in it.
