**Bedtime Stories with R.A. Spratt**

This is a weekly podcast of funny stories for kids. There are side-splitting versions of my own fractured fairy tales. Also short stories from some of my best-selling books, featuring characters from ‘The Adventures of Nanny Piggins’ and ‘Friday Barnes, Girl Detective’. The stories are perfect for bedtime, long car rides or even if you’re just stuck waiting a really long time at the doctor’s office. They’re written for 7-11 year olds but these are tales the whole family can enjoy. The silliness is ageless. I hope you enjoy listening to this as much as I enjoy recording it. After years of being a children’s author, typing away in my office with only my goldfish for company, I was bursting to tell my stories out-loud and with lots of silly voices! So please – sit back, get comfy and enjoy some amazing, some silly and some just plain ludicous tales direct from my imagination to you.

Nanny Piggins and Her Dramatic Entrance Sep 11, 2024

Show notes

This the first chapter of the first Nanny Piggins book published back in 2008. On October 15th 2024 my latest book 'Nanny Piggins and the Origin Story' will be released. I though recording this chapter would be a good way to remind everyone where it all began, and get you all ready for the new book.
