The Large Family: Grandpa Gets Into Trouble
By Jill Murphy
Granny and Grandpa Large come to babysit one weekend. A broken window and flooded bathroom follow – but it's Grandpa, not the children who's in trouble!
Mr Large is taking Mrs Large off out for the day for a relaxing picnic, so Granny and Grandpa come round to look after the children. But after the parents leave, disaster quickly strikes .... twice! Grandpa kicks a football through the living room window and forgets to mind Lucy. Then the bath overruns as they all take Grandpa to the doctor. Mum and Dad return to learn the children were good as gold – but Grandpa is in trouble.
- A new animated series based on the bestselling Large Family books will be screened on the ABC.
- "My children dote on this elephant family; I am privately convinced no one can enjoy them as much as I do." Kate Kellaway in The Observer
