Book Description

With a runaway lion loose in the neighbourhood, Derrick, Samantha and Michael feel scared. Nanny Piggins feels like a slice of cake. And Boris feels like that lion looks strangely familiar.

In this third action-packed book of adventures, Nanny Piggins tames a lion and a lion tamer. 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. All while thwarting Mr Green’s attempt to send her favourite children to Nicaragua (she does find it wearisome having to put him in his place constantly). And yet, somehow, she still finds time to bake lots and lots of cake.

About The Author

R.A. Spratt is an award-winning comedy writer with thirteen years' experience in the television industry. She lives in Sydney with her husband and two daughters. Unlike Nanny Piggins, she has never willingly been blasted out of a cannon.

      Comments about Nanny Piggins and the Runaway Lion:

      This is the best book ever written and I recomend it to people from the age of 7to10. 1f you are into funny and witty storys I would recomend this book. It is full of small but entertaining storys about a pig nanny who looks after three very lucky children, Derrick, Samantha and Michael. If you liked this book you will like all the other Nanny Piggins books!
