Her books have sold more than 50 million copies and have been translated into over a hundred languages and dialects across the world. Her latest book, The Magic Feather, will be published in March, and the highly anticipated new Gruffalo adventure, Gruffalo Granny, is coming in September. Plus two listeners take on the mid-morning music quiz Ten To The Top. A BBC Audio production for BBC Radio 2.
