Bedtime Stories with R.A. Spratt

  • Summary

  • 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.

    This is the live recording from the Book Launch for my latest book EPICALLY GOOD GREEK MYTHS. It was a lot of fun. I did a live reading, answered readers questions and explained the origin story of the book.

  • 'Odysseus and the Bag of Wind' as told by Nanny Piggins

    'Odysseus and the Bag of Wind' as told by Nanny Piggins
    Feb 25 2025

    When the retired army colonel who lives around the corner (and is deeply in love with Nanny Piggins) asks Derrick not to "let the cat out of the bag", this triggers a discussion about a much worse thing that Odysseus let out of a bag several thousand years ago.
