It is 1940 and William, 12, Edmund, 11, and Anna, nine, aren't terribly upset by the death of the not-so-grandmotherly grandmother who has taken care of them since their parents died. But the children do need a guardian, and in the dark days of World War II London, those are in short supply, especially if they hope to stay together. Could the mass wartime evacuation of children from London to the countryside be the answer?

My 8-year old son's favorite
My son has been listening to a lot of audiobooks thanks to being home all the time due COVID school closures. This was his favorite of the year. He listened to it 3x in a row. The author is also the narrator, and she does a fantastic job. I hope they release the rest of the series on audio soon.
My son's other top recommendation of the year: Kid Normal by Greg James and Chris Smith.
Update: It has been a year since I wrote this review, and my son is still completely obsessed with Nanny Piggins. We have also branched out into RA Spratt's wonderful podcast and Friday Barnes series. I sincerely hope that RA Spratt will do more audio recordings for her books; she's such a phenomenal narrator.

Delightful & Hilarious
We love Nanny Piggins, and the audiobooks are even better than the paperbacks! While Nanny a Piggins does favor a chocolate & cake diet and has all sorts of wild adventures that only work out because she is Nanny Piggins, she also promotes being good to each other, working together, and trying new things. I wish she could be my nanny.

A treat for the whole family
My daughter discovered these books at our local library and loved them so much she wanted to share them with the whole family, so we’ve been listening to the audiobooks together. (I hope they make more of the books into audiobooks.) These are delightful kids’ books that the adults in their lives can enjoy, too. Nanny Piggins is every child’s dream and every parent’s nightmare, but she is hilarious, and the author’s reading of the books makes them even funnier. I find myself laughing out loud every few sentences.

My 6 yr old loved this one (and I did too!)
Nanny Piggins is perfect for 6 yr old boys/girls. Also, it won't bore parents, which is an added bonus for car trips. The narration is perfect! My son asked to listen to this daily until we finished. The author's note at the beginning is particularly funny - warning children that they cannot only eat sweets, etc... A very funny and entertaining book.

She revolutionises the sport of ski jumping, introduces hot-pink leotards to the local Neighbourhood Watch, demonstrates trapeze skills on a moving bus, plays badminton with a wok and teaches Shakespeare a thing or two about how to write a play.

It is 1940 and William, 12, Edmund, 11, and Anna, nine, aren't terribly upset by the death of the not-so-grandmotherly grandmother who has taken care of them since their parents died. But the children do need a guardian, and in the dark days of World War II London, those are in short supply, especially if they hope to stay together. Could the mass wartime evacuation of children from London to the countryside be the answer?

And all is fair in love and war when it comes to keeping their home. A modern classic in the making reminiscent of the Penderwicks series.
