A medianoche todos los niños del hospital duermen plácidamente, salvo... ¡los Amigos de Medianoche! A esa hora empiezan sus locas aventuras.

Humor y aventuras de la mano del autor número 1 en Inglaterra.

Tras un golpe de pelota endemoniado que lo deja inconsciente, Tom se despierta tumbado en una camilla, en el Hospital Lord Funt, donde un terrorífico portero y una enfermera espeluznante lo trasladan al ala infantil. Parece una pesadilla, pero lo que Tom no sabe es que ¡muy pronto vivirá la aventura más emocionante de su vida!

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Welcome to the Midnight Gang! Midnight is the time when all children are fast asleep, except of course for...

the Midnight Gang. That is when their adventures are just beginning...

When Tom gets hit on the head by a cricket ball, he finds himself at Lord Funt Hospital, and is greeted by a terrifyinglooking porter.

Things go from bad to worse when he meets the wicked matron in charge of the children's ward... But Tom is about to embark on the most thrilling journey of a lifetime! 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! It is a story of friendship and magic - and of making dreams come true. Readers are set to be utterly spellbound by this heartfelt story that will bring magic to everyone's Christmas.
David Walliams nació en Londres en 1970. Desde 2008 combina su faceta de actor de comedia con la de escritor de novelas para jóvenes. Ha publicado ocho libros, con los que se ha ganado el respeto del público y la crítica especializada, convirtiéndose en el autor juvenil más vendido de los últimos años en el Reino Unido. La prensa ya lo ha bautizado como el «Roald Dahl del siglo XXI».
