Welcome to the terrifying Lord Funt Hospital, a place where the wicked Matron runs the children’s ward with a cruel, iron fist and scary Porters patrol the dark hallways. Young Tom finds himself in this dreary place after a cricket ball knocks him out. Though life on the ward is miserable, Tom soon makes friends with four other young patients: Amber, Robin, George, and Sally. They are a mix of personalities, but all share a restless spirit. Midnight is the time when all good children should be asleep, but for these five, midnight is when the real adventure begins. They form a secret society called The Midnight Gang. Their mission? To embark on a quest to make the dreams of the other sick children on the ward come true. Under the cover of darkness, they sneak out to transform the hospital into a place of wonder and magic, making the wildest dreams of their fellow patients come alive, from flying a kite to having a dance party. This is an extraordinarily heartwarming and funny story about the power of friendship, imagination, and creating a little magic when you need it most.
