The Midnight Gang

Product Information

The Midnight Gang tells an extraordinarily heartwarming and, of course, funny story of five children on a hospital ward and on a quest for adventure. The people of Japan believe that everyone has an ikigai - a reason for being; the thing that gets you out of bed each morning.

One of the other characters I really liked was the matron as she seemed to be a woman of many personalities, and who doesn’t love a villain? Mình chắc sẽ để dành cuốn này cho thằng em của mình đọc và tìm mua thêm vài cuốn khác của tác giả này.An exquisite portrait of the bond between a small boy and his beloved Grandpa – this book takes readers on an incredible journey with Spitfires over London and Great Escapes through the city in a high octane adventure full of comedy and heart. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a US Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes.

When Tom gets hit on the head by a cricket ball, he finds himself at Lord Funt Hospital, and is greeted by a terrifying looking porter. Poor Tom has been hit on the head by a cricket ball and wakes up in the Lord Funt Hospital with a big bandage on his head. There’s even a guest appearance from one of David Walliams’ recurring characters, Raj the Newsagent. In Love Is Not Enough, Mark’s first Audible Original, you’ll follow five real people over the course of six months as they navigate f--ked up romantic situations, ranging from dating app addiction to marital affairs to absurd fantasies. The story is about a Midnight Gang of differently abled kids, who fulfill each other’s dreams right at midnight without getting caught.I loved all the little children and by the end of the book I started to fall in love with them and wished them all the best in their lives (just like how you feel after reading a series of unfortunate events) . David Walliams, who has often been compared to Roald Dahl, creates many characters in a humorous way using stereotypes.

I've read each one of David Walliams' novels for children, and this is now probably in my top three (after 'Boy in the Dress' and 'Billionaire Boy').

Perhaps some of the credit goes to Tony Ross, whose wonderful illustrations bring the characters to life. They do find a father-figure of sorts though, one who incites prejudice of his own and has his own sad backstory, and gives the reader something to think about on judging by appearances.

Jo Sargent, who while at the BBC was responsible for such iconic shows such as Absolutely Fabulous, French and Saunders, and Big School, as well as six other David Walliams book adaptations, is once again the executive producer for King Bert Productions. As Emily pointed out, a book aimed at 9-11 year olds, is best reviewed by someone who falls into that age bracket…and as luck would have it, she’s ten. Since beginning his publishing career in 2008, David Walliams has taken the children’s literary world by storm. It deals with loneliness, friendship, parental abandonment, physical deformity, sickness and even death.

Vauhdikkaasta menosta huolimatta yllättävän koskettava tarina, vaikka kaikkien lasten sairaudet eivät nyt olleetkaan siitä vakavammasta päästä, olisi tietysti voinut ajatella että sairaudet ja vaivat olisivat oikeasti olleet sellaisia jotka vaativat päivien oleskelua sairaalassa. Tom subsequently finds himself on the children’s ward of horrible St Hugo’s Hospital… And a part of the midnight gang! He went to art school in Liverpool and has since worked as a typographer for design and advertising agencies. There's a truly ghastly Headteacher to hate as well as the Matron, and Tom is a very appealing hero. A história é muito bem escrita e desenvolvida, vem com belas lições, como nunca pare de sonhar e seus sonhos podem se realizar.
