Monsters & Magic

Sid from CBeebies is one of the well know voices that has given up his time to read one of the collection of wonderful children's stories for our very special Monsters & Magic CD in aid of the SMILE Appeal for the Rainbow Trust.

The unique collection of 12 children's stories written by listeners to BBC Southern Counties Radio are brought to life by BBC weather presenter, Carol Kirkwood;  actor Patrick Bergin, and voice of Mr Benn, Ray Brooks to name but a few.
