A new Nanny Piggins story!
People are always asking when I will write a new Nanny Piggins story – well I’ve done it! ‘Nanny Piggins and the Problem Cat’ was written especially for this anthology of short stories. It is on sale now in Australia.

Toronto, Washington and Maryland – do you want me to visit your school?
My January 2017 North American tour is filling up fast. But there are still spare times in Toronto (Canada) and Maryland/Washington DC (USA). If you live in these areas and would like me to visit your school send me an email at raspratt@nannypiggins.com. I do a high energy, educational and entertaining author presentation – even if your students have never heard of me, that won’t hold me back, I guarantee it will be awesome!

So much fun at the AWGIES!
On Friday night I won the preschool television AWGIE (Australian Writers’ Guild Award) for a Sydney Sailboat script I wrote. It was an awesome night. Barry Humphries, David Williamson and Bruce Beresford were all there. If you look closely at the photo you can see the acceptance speech written on the back of my hand.

America, watch out – I’m coming back!
If you are in America and you would like me to visit your school let me know. I have started planning my 2017 book tour to promote the January release of ‘Friday Barnes 3, Big Trouble’ in the USA. I’m definitely going to visit LA, but apart from that I’m open to suggestions. So send me an email at raspratt@nannypiggins.com or pm me via Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.
