Illustrated by
Edward Ardizzone.
Set in the Edwardian era of nurses, nannies, and governesses, three stories (Nurse Matilda, Nurse Matilda Goes to Town, and Nurse Matilda Goes to Hospital) are collected in this handsome omibus edition. Ardizzone's brilliantly rendered pen-and-ink drawings make this the perfect family read-aloud. A new generation can delight in the Brown children's breathtaking naughtiness. Review 8/68.
