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.

'The Story of Hermes' as told by Nanny Piggins
When Mr Green is sent home early from work because of a Hermes bag related head injury, Nanny Piggins tells the children the story of the original Hermes from the Ancient Greek story days and how he invented the banjo.
If you want to see a picture that was painted on an urn over 2000 years ago, depicting Hermes lyre/banjo there's one on the homepage of my website at https://raspratt.com
