Praise for The Adventures of Nanny Piggins * "Mary
Poppins, move over-or get shoved out of the way. Nanny Piggins has
arrived... This is smart, sly, funny, and marvelously
illustrated with drawings that capture Nanny's sheer
pigginess."--Booklist
* "Nanny Piggins returns and more hilarity ensues...the action is
nonstop and the silliness never ending, though there are words of
wise wisdom here as well."--Booklist (starred review)
"Reluctant and avid readers alike will get caught up in this book's
humor, charm, and adventure."--School Library Journal
"Spratt's Mary Poppins-cum-Paddington Bear with a sprinkling of
Snickettian humor makes for a terrific read aloud... Readers
will demand swift release of the two sequels."--Kirkus
Praise for Nanny Piggins and the Wicked Plan
* "If Amelia Bedelia and Mary Poppins raised a piglet, Nanny
Piggins ... could surely beat that pig in a cake-eating
contest...Australia's favorite porcine childcare worker returns in
a new collection of adventures sure to entertain and possibly
inspire envy in readers who'll wish she were their nanny...Feisty,
funny Nanny Piggins and her adoring charges will charm readers and
listeners stateside, who'll be overjoyed there are five additional
volumes already out Down Under."--Kirkus (starred review)
