Once upon a time there was a huge family of children; and they were terribly, terribly naughty .
So begin the tales of the no-nonsense Nurse Matilda who uses magic to tame the mischievous children in her charge - and who changes their lives forever.
The inspiration for the much-loved film Nanny McPhee, starring Emma Thompson and Colin Firth, the Nurse Matilda stories overflow with naughtiness, wit and timeless humour, making this collection the perfect gift for mischief-makers both young and old!
The collection contains all three instalments in the Nurse Matilda series, accompanied by Edward Ardizzone's beautiful original illustrations:
Nurse Matilda
Nurse Matilda Goes to Town
Nurse Matilda Goes to Hospital
