Description

Derrick, Samantha and Michael should be in school. Instead they find themselves in NASA's space shuttle, which Nanny Piggins manages to accidentally launch, blasting them all into outer space. This time she has gone too far! In this thrilling fourth instalment of her adventures, Nanny Piggins wrestles with a crocodile, bungy jumps off the roof using the elastic from Mr Green's underpants, staples chicken wire over their chimney to keep out Santa, captures an apricot danish-loving jewel thief and rescues her brother, Boris, from an onslaught of professional wrestlers.

Reviews

"Nanny Piggins is subversive, crazy, funny and naughty . . . the Green children love her, as will everyone between the ages of eight and 12." --The Australian Women's Weekly, on The Adventures of Nanny Piggins "Sarah Piggins is irrepressible, effortlessly eclipsing all her famous fictional peers." --The Australian, on The Adventures of Nanny Piggins "The Adventures of Nanny Piggins is the most exciting saga about a flying pig nanny ever told. There is a laugh on every page and a lesson in there somewhere. I recommend it highly.' --Former US Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, on The Adventures Of Nanny Piggins "Ever the sprightly storyteller, Spratt continues her reign of humor in this laugh-aloud series addition." --Booklist Online, 4/20/2016
