Wirral Book Fest April 8th - Playaways Launch

Our second Book Fest event was the official launch of "Playaways", the new, MP3-style audio book. We were joined by Maggie Mash, who gave a reading and a talk on her work as a narrator of talking books.

Playaways are now available to borrow from West Kirby Library. Use your own headphones or purchase a pair from us for £1.



Maggie Mash trained as an actress and worked in the professional theatre before starting her broadcasting career in Forces Radio. Later branching into voice-over work, Maggie now records audiobooks and provides the voice for such things as airlines’ in-flight videos and the national mental arithmetic SATS tests. Her voice is perhaps best-known for the years in which she was continuity announcer at Yorkshire Television.
