55 分钟Hi everyone, welcome to this week's episode of No Such Thing As A Fish, where we were joined by our good friend.
And erstwhile colleague, Anne Miller.
That's right, Anne Miller.
Not just a QI elf these days, not just a brilliant producer, but a children's author.
Yes, she has a new book out.
It is called The Monster Diaries.
What's it about, Andy?
It's about the Cyclops and the worst party ever.
It's a telling of the Cyclops myth from the Cyclops' point of view, which is a very funny and good idea.
Turns out Odysseus is a complete.
Pratt.
And the Cyclops is the one who should be the hero of the story, but has been mistreated by history.
So Anne is setting the record straight.
I gotta say, it's an amazing book.
My daughter has been swimming in it for the last week.
She cannot put it down.
And she's been asking for it to be read to her at every bedtime.
I know other kids will love it too.
And it's a part of a trilogy, so there's two more on the way.
If you want to subtly get brilliant bits of history and mythology into your child's brain, this is the way to do it.
