Spratt","description":"\u003cp\u003eNanny Piggins and The Ringmaster's Revenge is a classic storybook with a healthy twist of black humour. Not particularly set in any country or in any time, an ex-circus flying pig answers a 'wanted' ad for a nanny. She is a nanny like no other, and the three children she looks after love her. She insists on the constant consumption of huge amounts of chocolate, thinks school is a complete waste of time and has the most outlandish sense of adventure (after all, she spent her formative years getting fired out of a cannon). Nanny Piggins is a confident, glamorous, pig-of-the-world. She embodies the spirit of the 1920s Flapper. She wears beautifully stylish clothes (vintage designer outfits) and thinks nothing of taking the most daring risks (ie flying a plane, wrestling a salt water crocodile, or playing pin the tail on the donkey with a real donkey). So, imagine a pig that looks like an old-fashioned movie star with chocolate smeared all over her face. My sister is very good at sewing, explains Boris, her half-brother bear. She has a photographic memory for fashion. She only has to see an outfit once in a magazine and she can replicate it at a moments notice. All she needs is some thread and a few old potato sacks. Nanny Piggins is four foot tall and weighs forty kilograms. She is a common pink farm pig (the type bacon come from). Her hair is dark brown, cut in a short bob (flapper style), and her eyes are a piercing dark brown. She is incredibly beautiful. It is a burden she has had to learn to live. Men are constantly falling in love with her. Because of her circus background she knows how to look glamorous for a performance. And although you might think shes extremely fat from consuming so much chocolate she is an elite athlete. Being shot out of a cannon is the most extreme of extreme sports (skate boarding is for piglets). So she is strong, dexterous and agile. It is just unfortunate that her species has a genetic predisposition to dumpiness.--Provided by publisher.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Book Express","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41843366723658,"sku":"3192u","price":8.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/9101\/8826\/files\/3192u.jpg?v=1764495967","url":"https:\/\/www.bookexpress.nz\/products\/the-adventures-of-nanny-piggins-by-r-a-spratt-3192u","provider":"Book Express","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
