Produktbeschreibung

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

So begins Nurse Matilda, the first of three books about the no-nonsense nanny who uses magic to rein in the mischievous children in her charge - and changes their lives forever.

Nurse Matilda visits the Brown children each time they begin to slip into their wicked ways, from chaos at home to a potentially disastrous trip to London and a suspect illness at the hospital.

But once she has sorted them out, Nurse Matilda must be on her way. For, 'When my children don't want me, but do need me: then I must stay. When they no longer need me, but they do want me: then I have to go.'

Now you can collect all three Nurse Matilda eBooks at once in this convenient bundle.

This eBook bundle contains:
Nurse Matilda
Nurse Matilda Goes to Town
Nurse Matilda Goes to Hospital

Autorenporträt

Christianna Brand was born in 1909. As a child she lived with the family of her cousin, Edward Ardizzone. Christianna had many jobs until finally, in 1941, her first crime novel Death in High Heels was published, which was followed by successful crime novels and historical romance as well as children's books. She died in 1988. Edward Ardizzone was born in 1900. He illustrated for the Radio Times, exhibited his art in prestigious galleries and, in 1936, Little Tim and the Brave Sea Captain was published - the first of the books. In 1956 Tim All Alone was the first book to win the Kate Greenaway Award. In 1962 Christianna and Edward collaborated on an anthology of stories called Naughty Children, which featured a tale about Nurse Matilda, followed by Nurse Matilda Goes to Town (in 1966) and Nurse Matilda Goes to Hospital (in 1973).
