As a complete change from my usual historical writing I have been asked to write a short story for ‘Little Radio’. This radio station for children is run by TV presenter and actor Chris Jarvis (people in the UK will know him from the BBC TV children’s channel CBeebies, or may have seen him in pantomime). ‘Little Radio’ is a great resource which you can listen to 24 hours a day via the app or online.

If you have some little ones at home please do listen in at 6.30pm or 8.30pm on Wednesday 12^th August when Chris will be reading my story, ‘The Lost Egg’.
