Oliver Jeffers & Desert Island Disco

Author Oliver Jeffers joins Lauren to talk about his latest children's book and one listener shares the soundtrack to their Desert Island Disco.

Oliver Jeffers joins Lauren to talk about his latest book, The Fate of Fausto. The award winning artist, illustrator, and author of children's picture books - including, Lost and Found, The Incredible Book Eating Boy and Stuck - has sold over 10 million books worldwide, with his works also being adapted in to animated films. No stranger to 6 Music, Oliver presented a show as part of the Paperback Writers series last year playing music from Belle & Sebastian, John Martyn and Louis Armstrong.

As it is Friday - one listener shares the soundtrack to their Desert Island Disco and there's a chance to get a tune played on the radio if you're First In. We also hand-pick something incredible from around the 6 Music schedule in Fantastic Beats & Where To Find Them, and we'll play you something brand new that we love in While You Were Sleeping.
