Finally, Nanny Piggins sets the record straight and reveals what really happened 3,000 years ago on the most epically awesome journey of all time - The Odyssey! Spoiler alert - Homer totally left out the fact that Odysseus was a staggeringly beautiful woman and a pig. Travel with Odysseus and her crew as they face man-munching monsters, Greek Gods with rage issues, Sirens brandishing cake batter to tempt sailors to their doom and a forbidden sausage sizzle on the Island of Helios. This is the perfect book for before bed, avoiding homework or for those times when you're shipwrecked on a desert island, perhaps because you've angered the Sea God Poseidon by poking his son in the eye. 'This is a terrific book! I loved reading about everything the monsters ate. I just wish there were recipes, so we could recreate the meals at home.' - Scylla (murderous six-headed giant lizard) 'At the time, I couldn't understand why Odysseus' journey took so long. Now I've read this book, I'm amazed she got home as quickly as she did.' - Penelope (Odysseus' husband) 'I really enjoyed the audiobook.' - Polyphemus, the Cyclops
