Every object has a story - from the most ordinary looking pebble, to the most glittering jewel. Where did it come from? Who owns it? What is it used for and what magical and mysterious things can it do? 

Listen to Strange Objects With Extraordinary Stories written and performed by Little Green Pig’s young writers, who used real and imaginary objects as their inspiration, and you will learn about a cake loving fly, a magical cat portrait, an abandoned house that grows legs and much more! We’re sure listeners of all ages will enjoy this playful and imaginative feast!

This episode is made by children aged 7 - 11 who attend Little Green Pig’s creative writing after school club at the Laurels Primary School in Worthing where they work with writer Rayna Haralambieva. 

Recorded by Chris Callard, Maggie Chau & Nicky Crabb, with support from Sally Woodcock.

Edited by Sarah Sayeed.
