### From School Library Journal
Grade 4–7—Nanny McPhee is back with her Important Lessons (and her giant warts) in this novelization of the movie by Emma Thompson who wrote the screenplay. In WWII England, the Greens have had to say goodbye to Father, who has been sent off to war and seems to have disappeared. The family is struggling to keep their farm from the clutches of a ne'er-do-well uncle, when their snobby, rich cousins arrive to avoid the bombing in London. Just when all seems hopeless, Nanny McPhee arrives with her magic stick to save the day. Read by the author (and Nanny McPhee herself), Academy Award-winner Emma Thompson alternates chapters between the story and the behind-the-scenes film diary. Thompson's intimate narrative feels as though she's letting you in on the joke. The diary offers a fascinating look at the making of a movie, filled with insider knowledge and hilarious asides. This good, old fashioned, moral yarn is a delightful listen.—*Terry Ann Lawler, Phoenix Public Library, AZ*

### Review
'An interesting twist on a film novelisation ... wittily written, this gives a delightful insight into the craft of film-making and the accidents (Rhys Ifans breaking a foot playing football) that can hold things up, and will provide lots of trivia-spotting for children who watch it on the big screen ... Nice idea, well done' Daily Mail
