Jackanory Junior - 'Explorer Trauma'
Tamsin Greig reads the story of Indiana Brown and his embarrassing parents. Indiana has an unusual childhood, having been born in a rainforest. By the time he was four, the boy had climbed Everest and swam with dolphins. Even when Indiana starts school his parents take him on exotic holidays and would rather feed him a bush tucker breakfast than cereal or toast. Indiana would prefer a more normal holiday and gets his wish when he wins a trip to a seaside holiday camp. His parents join in with the knobbly knees and karaoke competitions, and the family has some slightly more normal fun together. 'Explorer Trauma' was written by Sue Mongredien and illustrated by Teresa Murfin.
