Vogue Williams says opportunity to write first kids' book is 'so exciting' ahead of release

Vogue Williams said being given the chance to write her first children’s book is “so exciting”.

Jump For The Stars is available to buy this week and the mum-of-three told how reading is a huge hobby in her home with her family. The 36-year-old from Howth, Co Dublin, said: “The kids absolutely love books. Theodore started speaking really young and he has so many words.

"He can hold a conversation with an adult. He’s absolutely brilliant. I put a lot of that down to reading and it sets us up for our bedtime routine."

“To have written my own book is so exciting. I can’t wait to read it to them. It’s like something I never thought I would be able to do but getting to do it, I can’t wait to hold the book in my hand.”

But Vogue admitted it did take a lot of time to publish her book. She said: “Even down to choosing somebody who will do the illustrations.

“I love what she did and that is such a huge part of the book as well because that’s what jumps out at children too.”

Actress Amy Huberman also released her first children’s book this week. The Day I Got Trapped In My Brain is a story she says was inspired by her own upbringing and kids – Sadie, nine, Billy, seven, and 19-month-old Ted – who she shares with hubby Brian O’Driscoll.
