The Adventures of Nanny Piggins, by R.A. Spratt


When Mr. Green advertises for a nanny for his three children, he certainly does not expect a pig to show up at the front door. But since Mr. Green is extremely cheap and Nanny Piggins is willing to work for 10 cents per week, a deal is struck. To the childrens' delight they soon discover that Nanny Piggins is a former circus pig who lets them eat sweets all day, takes them on excursions to the amusement park instead of school shopping and on boat rides with the intention of reaching China for a bite to eat. With Nanny Piggins the children never know where adventure will strike next, but they sure know that they want to be along for the ride! 2010
