The Midnight Gang

Product Information

And the author also manages to get a little dig aimed at Britain's Got Talent in there, mentioning TV talent shows. After meeting a naive doctor and s a scary-looking porter, he ends up on the children's ward with a collection of long-term residents, some in plaster, some very ill. Imagine having three life-coaches who had been through the toughest mental and physical challenges; a crack team of problem-solvers who knew in their day job that one mistake could be the difference between life - and death.

Maflingo [Flamingo, to grown-ups who can pronounce it] is a lifestyle blog, borne out of my desire to be creative and pursue my passion for writing after more than twenty years in an non-creative profession. It transpires that the children are part of the Midnight Gang: an ages-old hospital tradition that makes dreams come true for sick children. In the end we see the children putting others ahead of themselves and learning how to work together.A história é muito bem escrita e desenvolvida, vem com belas lições, como nunca pare de sonhar e seus sonhos podem se realizar. As the crumbling hospital and it’s colourful inhabitants provide the setting for the children’s midnight escapades, Walliams both entertains and amuses, whilst delicately weaving a message of friendship, loyalty and not judging a book by its cover along the way. Lapsipotilaiden elämä ei ole herkkua, mutta keskiyöllä Tom havahtuu siihen, että naapurisänkyjen asukkaat suunnittelevat jotakin salaperäistä.

And things only get worse when he meets the hospital staff, including the wicked matron of the children s ward. As a child, there was something thrilling about being up beyond my usual bedtime, especially if the grown-ups were asleep. my favourite part of this book was when an old lady took Georges balloons and flew of into the night,it made me laugh so much.It is just the perfect book for any middle grader and teaches them how life can be mean but how you can deal with it with a smile! A terrifying looking but friendly porter helps this gang all the while that leads them into exciting adventures. Charlie Leech is the producer, whose past credits include David Walliams' Grandpa's Great Escape, The Wrong Mans for the BBC, Lovesick, Loaded, AMC and Bounty Hunters. Elliot Hegarty is the director, whose past credits include David Walliams' Grandpa's Great Escape, Lovesick, The Middle and Blackish and series two of Bad Education.

The Midnight Gang tells an extraordinarily heart-warming and, of course, funny story of five children on a hospital ward and on a quest for adventure!

The Midnight Gang itself is lovely, an inspired if not altogether unique idea, but it is what it means that is really wonderful - at the heart of the book is the idea of doing things for others, being there for your friends, a message embedded nicely by Walliams throughout the story. Yet, it was the camaraderie of the children, the help from unexpected places and the message of kindness and bravery that left me with a lump in my throat and a smile on my lips beyond the final page. When the much-anticipated book arrived, I barely had chance to pull it out of its envelope before Emily whisked it away and headed to her room to read it. As a mum in my forties, I may be a bit older than The Midnight Gang’s target audience, but words like ‘Midnight’ and ‘Gang’ still conjure up exciting childhood memories of sleepovers, midnight feasts and hanging out with friends.
