The hero, you know as well as you read, is George. This young boy is obedient and a little timid but also naughty sometimes. He lives with his parents and maternal grandmother on his father’s farm. One fine day, both his parents went out, and he was left alone with his granny. She was to be given medicine every day. George set off to make a medicine of his own. After the mind-boggling effect it had on his granny, neither he nor the reader could guess what was coming next.
