Emma Thomson follows successfully in her father’s ( Magic Roundabout) footsteps , with this delightful children’s story, that adults will also enjoy, with the characters’ vivid dialogue and authentic voices. She intersperses the story with her diary of making the film, which is almost as hilarious as the story itself. Altogether a joy!

Delightful children’s story for adults too!

I absolutely love this audiobook. It's full of humour and great behind the scenes stories. Emma Thompson has a brilliant voice for narration. If you loved the movie, you will adore the audiobook. I wiah there was one for this first movie.

Love this

Once I got used to the writer's format I relaxed and enjoyed the book!
This book ping-pongs back and forth between the actual Nanny McPhee story and Emma Thompson's diary of what happens on the film stage, giving us an interesting peep behind the scenes!
The only thing that didn't quite sit well for me (I blame it on being an English tutor) is that Emma simply explains who has what role in the filming family but then uses non-child-friendly complicated words which would have been difficult to understand seeing that (I'm guessing) that the target audience would be the younger end of the generations!

A hybrid book!
